Hi everyone,

I'm a French learner from Canada, and I’m trying to download or access the captions/subtitles from videos on ICI Radio-Canada, specifically from this page:

https://ici.radio-canada.ca/info/listes/28-23005/vu-sur-ici-rdi

My goal is purely for language learning. I’m studying French and I want to use the captions to improve my listening comprehension. The issue is that when I watch the videos, the captions seem slightly delayed and do not always match the speaker at the exact moment, so I miss parts of what is being said. I need to download the captions file.

I have watched a few YouTube tutorials about downloading subtitles/captions, including this one:

However, the methods shown there do not seem to work on the Radio-Canada website.

Does anyone know how to access or download the caption files from ICI Radio-Canada videos, or have any suggestions for a better way to study the subtitles from these videos?

Thanks in advance for any help!
