vtt subtitles problem

[pipaguo]

When I visit this website, I want to get a vtt subtitle file, but when I open the developer tool options, the VTT subtitle file I get is as shown in the figure. How should I deal with this subtitle file? I want to get a subtitle file of normal format and size. What should I do? Is there a good way?The Website address：https://www.ctv.ca/shows/love-island-usa/episode-1-s7e1

I have another question, if anyone can answer it. I want to know if the subtitles on the website Crave can be obtained? Are the subtitles on that website in the normal format and size? I don't have a Crave account yet. I am considering whether to register one. But I am afraid that the VTT subtitles on Crave will be the same as the subtitles on CTV. Then the account will be registered in vain. Because I only want the subtitle file of this program, I am not interested in other programs and their subtitles.

Weird way to present subtitles.
If there is no good solution to this problem, I think I would save my time by doing audio to text transcription, at least I would get full text subtitles this way

Can I get normal vtt subtitles through this? Instead of the messy subtitles mentioned above? If so, can you provide a video of the operation? I am not in the field of python.

No, it's not that I can't get the vtt file, but the VTT file I get is not in the normal format as shown in the picture above. I can get vtt subtitles through the developer options.
