Here's a thought:

Dig out an old mac that runs, say, MacOS 10.6 or 10.7 and then follow this:

Hi all,

I’m resurrecting some QuickTime movies from years ago, and some of them have 
text tracks. (Remember those?)

In the LC player object you can still see that there is a text track with `put 
the tracks of player 1`. But there doesn’t seem to be a way anymore to show 
text tracks, either in the player object or in QT Player. All of the hits I get 
on the topic in a DuckDuckGo search are 15 - 20 years old.

Anybody know how to show, or at least recover, old text tracks from video files?

(Man I hate it when the technology gets *less* capable!)
