Question

If a video has multiple subtitile formats for a single language, would the --all-subs retrieve just one subtitle per language or all of them?

Reason for asking:
https://www.sbs.com.au/ondemand/video/11821123796/hestons-feasts-victorian contains 2 formats: srt and dfxp. --list-subs confirms both are present.
However --all-subs would only download the srt. I can override that using --sub-format dfxp, so the dfxp file is available, but I do not understand why it would not be retrieved with --all-subs.

This may be a site broken issue, but I have not found another site with more than one format per language, so I am not able to confirm whether it is a bug, a site broken issue or a by-design choice.

--all-subs will download all languages.

So you are saying that it will only download one subtitle format per language, and therefore the behaviour I saw is by-design, and not a bug?
