What if the video has no subtitles?
If a creator did not add captions, the tool falls back to YouTube auto-generated captions. If neither exists, no transcript can be produced.
Which languages are supported?

Are timestamps included?
No. The transcript is cleaned into flowing plain text without timestamps, ready to read or paste.
