You can either integrate this module into an existing application, or just use it via an CLI. If you want to use it from source, you'll have to install the dependencies manually: pip install -r requirements.txt It is recommended to install this module by using pip: pip install youtube_transcript_api It also works for automatically generated subtitles, supports translating subtitles and it does not require a headless browser, like other selenium based solutions do!

In step 3 I get the transcripts, and the result stored in variable 'srt' is a tuple -> tuple.
