      Hello

      I hope everyone is well and safe!

       

      I received this plugin yesterday after the email subscription. I installed it and watched the demo. I tried it but only always a yellow icon, nothing scraped.

      Is it an old app and not working anymore?

       

      Thank you

      Hello,

      Thank you for the deads-up on this issue, it seems that YouTube deactivated the caption service which was used by the plugin to scrape closed captions.

      I need to look for alternatives now, to replace the old caption API with a new one (or wait a bit to see if it will be reactivated, because I did not find any info on its deactivation – so it might be a temporary down time).

      Anyway, I will look into this.

      Regards,

      The caption service was available here: https://video.google.com/timedtext?v=PILzP-bIeLo

      Now returning blank.
