[Bug]: Lecture Chats in Wndows about impartus-downloader HOT 5 CLOSED

Thanks for confirming.

Just a sidenote -
.vtt (or webvtt) is a subtitle format file, so you don't need to open / view it in notepad.
Instead if you open the video in a player that supports vtt, such as VLC (version 4 or higher), it would play the lecture chats in real time as subtitles.
Since vtt also supports positioning of the subtitle window, and more than 1 subtitle line at a time, I'm using that feature to bring up a chat-like window interface.

I've updated the line no. 122 in lib/captions.py
with open(filepath, 'w+') as fh:
to
with open(filepath, 'w+', encoding="utf-8") as fh:

to specify an explicit encoding.

Can you pull the latest code and check if that fixes the issue you are seeing ?
