Amazing concept! The app is having a hard time finding the transcripts for YouTube videos. It wasn’t able to find a single one that I tried, even older videos. However, I’ve used custom GPT‘s that are able to, for example, provide summaries of YouTube videos successfully so something’s not working for this service. Maybe they’re using speech-to-text when no transcript is available?
Here’s some that were failing:

thx! can you please paste any links you tried here. I'm going to add some fall back options when youtube-transcript-api can't retrieve a transcript.
I built few months ago a toy project using youtube-transcript-api, but the problem is youtube block IPs after a few downloads.
All the big cloud providers are blocked by default, maybe the trick is doing proxies but then it start to get expensive.
If you have any idea of how to get away with it pls lemme know.
