Can`t upload videos with automatic subtitles to Linq

Hey, for the past few months, it has become a habit of mine to upload videos from YouTube, specifically from the ARTEDE channel. Unfortunately, as of today, I can’t upload them because they don’t have official subtitles. It’s a shame because most of the content I find in German is from channels like this one. What can I do about it?

Seems like there are problems with importing from YouTube in general. A lot of posts about various issues.
For auto-generated subtitles, you an check this Can't import videos with auto-generated captions .

I started having problems about a week ago. It seems if the subtitles are auto generated I get an error message that there are no appropriate subtitles or something like that. If I find the youtube video already within LingQ then it seems to work. Hopefully it’ll get corrected as it’s sort of cramping my style of learning right now. (I have to rely on others content already in LingQ instead of finding whatever I’m interested in watching.)

add: or watch on youtube and not have the benefit of collecting words.
