I’d be interested in adding IQIYI to the list of video sources I use for immersion. I know Chinese streaming platforms and TVs usually have hard subs, that is great because lack of subtitles isn’t a problem, but usually they are hard subs that need to be read by ourselves or converted into text by using OCR. Soft subs instead can be downloaded directly and could be fed into Lingq. Does IQIYI have soft subs? Can I use Rooster to create lessons from IQIYI videos directly?

IQIYI has a mixture of soft and hard sub videos. From my tests, most videos had both versions. If the soft subs are available they are directly imported.
