In this video it has some awsome animations... i downloaded the .ttml files and converted it too ass/srt but there are only partial animations.. the position on subs is off as well.. I dont think its a problem of the conversation because the ttml files dosen't contain some styling info i think..
timedtext.json
youtube
vlc

Can confirm, TTML files downloaded from Youtube are missing positioning information. Their WebVTT files have positioning but lose some of the styling. For this to work, someone would need to write a converter from Youtube's proprietary timedtext format to ASS or another format...
