youtube-dl seems to be forgetting that I requested subtitles. His selective memory seems to manifest consistently within a given playlist. For instance, in this one it will not download .srt files for playlist items 45 or 84, even though they do exist, as I can view them with the videos through the web interface. I think perhaps the "requested_subtitles": null in the json output may give us a clue.

With --dump-json it won't download anything.

I added the --dump-json for your benifit. It doesn't download it with or without it. The bug is valid, as the json for items that it does download shows non-null "requested_subtitles".

You must provide verbose log that clearly demonstrates the issue. I'm not going to fortune tell where you've failed.

Would you like me to open a new issue for this with a proper "verbose log that clearly demonstrates the issue", or is this enough to reopen this issue and proceed to divine where I have failed?

You know, 30 minutes ago, there was a transcript available, and I was watching glorious subtitles in amazing resolution, but now... Lynda has forgotten it exists. My appologies to youtube-dl for defaming his reputation. I do hope he forgives me. Please tell him I'm sorry.
