YouTube PO Token
Required when YouTube blocks the server as a bot. Get your PO token and visitor data from pytubefix docs. Without this, YouTube transcription falls back to auto-generated subtitles (which works for most videos).
Transcription Pipeline
The transcriber tries these methods in order:
- 1.YouTube Transcript API — Grabs auto-generated subtitles directly. Fast, no download. Works for most YouTube videos.
- 2.pytubefix + PO Token — Downloads audio with authentication. Requires token above. Best quality transcript via Whisper.
- 3.yt-dlp — Final fallback for non-YouTube URLs (podcasts, etc). Downloads audio, transcribes with Whisper.
