For some reason, the subtitles don't work on VLC, is there something I need to be aware about, like converting them?

Can you clarify which format doesn't work with vlc?
In my experiences, most of the time you don't need to convert the subtitles.
The result of this option --write-auto-sub --write-sub --sub-lang en,id --sub-format srt/best
Assuming the left side is the autosub, and the right side is the chosen language. The subtitle from auto-sub is messy, but the other one is quite good. That approach still can be adjusted, to give higher priority when downloading subtitle
--write-auto-sub --write-sub --sub-lang en,id --sub-format srt/sub/ssa/vtt/ass/best
But if you want to make sure the subtitle is nicely displayed, see another option from youtube-dl:
--embed-subs
, Embed subtitles in the video (only for mp4,
webm and mkv videos)--convert-subs FORMAT
, Convert the subtitles to other format
(currently supported: srt|ass|vtt|lrc)You may want to take a look supported format from vlc, surely you want to ask the format which supported from vlc and youtube-dl
wow, thanks, it worked... I'm curious of what I did wrong... what are the required option for it work? Maybe I omitted an argument? – jokoon – 2019-09-18T15:39:12.603
perhaps it's the
--write-sub
, the--write-auto-sub
is for automatic subtitle – Adi Prasetyo – 2019-09-18T15:59:01.980
