I need help getting the OSB caption plugin to save the caption to a text file

I downloaded and installed OSB 31.1.2, and added the OSB caption plugin.
I got my stream playing with audio.
In the caption Preview, I have caption enabled and can see that it is working and updating quickly and adequately.

I cannot save all of the captions in a text file.
If I hit start recording in the OSB program, the video saves to the hard disk (without any captions added) OSB creates a .txt file that has some of the captions in it. I'm guessing about 50 words total; the file is missing parts of sentences, etc. Nothing like what is in the stream output preview window, which has every word typed out correctly.

How can I get access to the entire captioning transcript in a text file?

My ultimate goal is to be able to search the caption file in real-time for specific keywords from a different text file I have on my computer and copy the time stamp, the keyword that was "said" in the stream that matches keywords from my text file, along with a few other things, in the future if this works out.

I mention this because someone may have done this before and knows how to proceed with the next step of this project I am working on. Maybe I don't need to capture the captions to a text file first, and there is a way to search the caption preview.

Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated.

It seems that many moons ago it was possible with "LocalVocal" plugin:

Could there be something wrong with my OSB caption plugin that prevents it from exporting all the text to the text file? it works perfect live.

I figured out what you meant. Thank you again.

If you know of another plugin that would do the same thing, let me know.
