What i am seeking? while downloading the video i want to download the subtitles associated with it (in priority order, original > auto generated) and subtitles gets embedded (if embedded means integrated and not imprinted to the video) into file and doesnt download a separate subtitle file.

What i tried

  1. ksnip_27052023-104952

  2. ksnip_27052023-105112

  3. ksnip_27052023-105132

With setting only options in pic1 and 2, i get a separate subtitle file With all pic 1,2 and 3, i get subtitles embedded as well as separate file

How can i achieve the desired output?

Is that possible using yt-dlp? I don't see anything about it in the yt-dlp documentation.

subtitles gets embedded and doesnt download a separate subtitle file.

The yt-dlp documentation suggests adding --compat-options no-live-chat (see here), but again, I don't know anything about this. If you can find out how to achieve the desired results using yt-dlp, then I can tell you how to translate that into Tartube settings.
