Closed Captions

[gpapaioa]

Thank you for this great tool. This is not an issue but I would like to ask you if its possible to add an option to include closed captions (subtitles)? I checked the .ts chunks and the subtitles stream is missing. Thank you.

I did some trials with ertflix content. Even though I request an .m3u8 indicating the text stream in the url itself I get chunks that do not have subtitles. Looking into it...

E.g. https://mediaserve.ert.gr/bpk-vod/ertflix/sww9vzb8ao/erimi-xwra-s01-ep01/erimi-xwra-s01-ep01/erimi-xwra-s01-ep01-audio_ell=320000-video=3999751-textstream_en-US_1=1000-274.ts

subtitles_git.patch
This patch does let you select and acquire .vtt subtitles using ffmpeg magic. I also tried downloading the sub chunks locally and then concatenating them but the timestamps were all over the place, it didn't work correctly.
