Provide a description that is worded well enough to be understood
suggestion
As (AFAIK) it is currently not possible to distinguish between subs and autosubs in the download dir, I suggest:
a separate filename template for autosubs: -o "auto-sub:"
use cases
- It allows the user to know what are subs and what are autosubs (when they are in the same dir).
- Autosubs could be put in a subdir of the subtitle dir or into a different dir altogether.
- It helps in tracking down what subs have been actually downloaded. For example TSNbCSF13Zo has Romanian sub and Romanian autosub, but
despite --write-subs --write-auto-subs --all-subs --sub-langs all
the download dir contains only 1.ro
file. (Bug?) With separate filename templates we could know if that is a sub or autosub file.

- Run your yt-dlp command with -vU flag added (
yt-dlp -vU <your command line>
) - If using API, add
'verbose': True
toYoutubeDL
params instead - Copy the WHOLE output (starting with
[debug] Command-line config
) and insert it below
