Does YouTube restricting a video also stops Filmot from retrieving its subtitles?

Restrictions on access to a video or its captions can prevent Filmot from collecting new subtitles or transcripts. Age-restricted and members-only videos may still appear with basic metadata but without searchable captions.

Availability can change. A transcript collected while a video was accessible may remain in Filmot's historical index even if the current YouTube page no longer offers it.
