Youtube subtitles not working

[Einlar]

Describe the bug
Subtitles from YouTube videos are not loaded at all.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Paste a YouTube video with JP subtitles into miteiru (e.g. I'm using this one).
2. Wait for subtitles to (not) appear.

Expected behavior
Subtitles should appear.

Additional context
Tested on Windows 11, both for the 5.13.0 release, and by running the app in dev mode from the main branch.
I think the issue is in the getSubtitles() function, which uses axios to fetch the transcript from YouTube's API. If I add a console.log() there, like this:

const {data: transcript} = await axios.get(subtitle.baseUrl);
console.log(`Got transcript: "${transcript}"`);

Then the terminal shows:

Got transcript: ""

So I suppose YouTube changed some stuff, and now returns a blank response when trying to fetch the transcript.

Proposed solution
Using something like yt-dlp works fine, so it could be integrated there, instead of having to play catch-up with all YouTube changes.

good idea.. I'll try to implement it. But then again, each person must set up their own yt-dlp, not sure whether including all the binary packed together with miteiru would be a viable option.

I'll think of an idea how to make a good UX for this haha

@Einlar try 5.13.2

That was fast! Just tried it and it immediately worked.

Just two more small suggestions:

• The list of subtitles shows a lot of repeated names

• It would be nice to pause the video while choosing the subtitles, and unpausing it once they finish loading
