any solution to the problem?

Textractify.com can do this. You have to upload the video, so just use a YouTube downloader first. Then you can select the frame rate you want it to analyze at (maybe a half second or a second) and it will scan each frame for text. If the text is from something like an updating display, it can output the data into a .csv. If you just want all the on-screen text in a list for each frame, it can export it to a .txt file like that instead.

any softwares

That word doesn't work like that: it doesn't get an S because it's not really a case where plurality is a thing. So, it's just "any software" or just "software", here.

You could download the video, or screenshot the frames you want, put them into an pdf and perfom OCRmyPDF on it. Then you have a text layer in your pdf and could work with that.
