YouTube Video Playlist Transcript Downloader lets you download YouTube captions when they are available and save them as useful local text files. Save one video immediately, or create a focused export from a public channel or an individual playlist. It is made for research, note-taking, writing, analysis, and creator workflows. Instead of opening videos one by one and copying text manually, collect the relevant material in a format you can read, search, quote, and keep. Bulk download YouTube transcripts, selectively A channel or playlist can contain hundreds of videos, while your project may need only a small, current set. Narrow the export before it starts: - Search video titles for a word or phrase, such as “AI” - Limit the scope to Any time, Past 24 hours, Past 7 days, Past 30 days, or Past 12 months - Preview the matching videos before starting - Export only the matching files with available captions For example, find videos published in the last 12 months whose titles contain “AI,” review the matches, and export that set instead of an entire back catalogue. The selected title and time scope are also reflected in the ZIP filename, so downloaded research stays easy to identify later. Useful for focused source work - Collect recent interviews, talks, lectures, or product updates about one topic - Build a dated set of source notes from a channel without processing every upload - Save material from a playlist before writing, studying, or analysing it - Prepare a focused source bundle for a Claude or Codex project when you want to discuss an author’s ideas or research a topic What you can export - A caption file from an individual YouTube video - Available files from a public channel in one ZIP - Available files from an individual public playlist in one ZIP - Auto-generated and creator-uploaded caption tracks when available - An auto-translated transcript for an individual video when YouTube provides that translation Choose a format for the next step Save each result as: - Markdown (.md), with headings and the optional details you select—ready to place in an Obsidian vault - Plain text (.txt), for reading, sharing, search, or further processing You choose what each file contains Configure the output for the task at hand: - Turn timestamps on or off - Add or remove selected video metadata - Select an available original-language or creator caption track - Keep single-video downloads simple - Package bulk results as one ZIP file Designed to fit naturally into YouTube The controls appear where the task happens: download options on a video page, and bulk export controls and filters on a channel or playlist page. Menus stay contextual and visually unobtrusive, so the page remains familiar while the relevant action is easy to find. A predictable bulk workflow Bulk work runs one item at a time and shows progress, an estimate, and a cancellation option while it is active. Videos without usable captions are skipped. The available results are still packaged into a partial ZIP, so one unavailable item does not discard the rest of your selected work. What availability means The extension downloads only caption tracks that YouTube makes available for each public video. If a selected track is unavailable, that video is skipped rather than producing a mismatched file. A bulk result can therefore be partial, while the usable files still arrive together. FAQ - How do I download a transcript from YouTube? Open a supported video, public channel, or individual playlist. Choose the available caption track and output settings, then download a single file or start a filtered bulk export. - How do I download captions from a YouTube video? Open the video page, choose the available caption track and file settings, then download the result directly. - Can I get a transcript of a YouTube video in another language? For individual videos, the extension supports YouTube auto-translations when they are available. Bulk exports use the selected available original or creator track. - Can I download a whole channel or playlist? You can export available files from a supported public channel or individual public playlist.
