Is it possible to keep youtube videos AND their stylish captions for myself offline?

The thumbnail image is a screenshot from a Youtube video, for a song. the lyrics in gold color are Youtube closed captions, they look cool and stylish right? This is common in videos of 4K scaled anime openings. Can I get these offline? I know I can download videos using yt-dlp, and include subtitles in the container using the –embed-subs flag, I think you can also download subtitle files in vtt extension, but VLC can’t read them I think.

Are these the web based captions? I didn’t know you could have those in 2 locations at the same time (top and bottom)… That’s neat. But it does make me think they’re baked into the video, in which case they’d always be included if you download them.

Maybe check other players if they can display them correctly? Not sure if mpv can butt that’s what I’d try first.
