Download Subtitle Files for Offline Viewing #1371

Describe your suggested feature

When downloading the video, it should also download the subtitles file and create a new hard sub format. This way users can watch offline completely while traveling. Especially since most sites don't seem to do hard subs due to them generally sucking for multi-language use.

I just wanted to add, it seems like the original source had a bad subtitle link. I still think it would be nice to allow users to automatically create a hardcoded subtitled version of the video so that they could use other video player apps. Especially since the user cannot just search their downloaded videos within the app. If a source no longer has the video file, there is no way to watch the downloaded content.
