For this one show (John Oliver) I download, I always get ALL CAPS and poorly synced subtitles. The text seems OK, but it’s barely usable because very off-sync. I’m curious: where do these subs come from?

well actually!
Teletext is a british invention, and the basis for european television caption.
the US system is based on the european one, and it’s likely that the reason for the difference on the captioning is something other than the tech. f.ex that in US it’s less common to use cc or smth, or that the cc was made live, i.e. during the broadcast, like a fotball match or smth.
