Subtitles can travel as a separate file or stay visible in a downloaded copy of the video. Download SRT or VTT files for optional subtitles in compatible players, or use Export video to download a video with subtitles included. Start with the same transcript for either result, review the wording once, and choose the download that fits where the video will be watched.
How to do it
- Upload the video and create its transcript.
- Review the words, timing, and speaker names on screen.
- Download SRT or VTT when you want a separate subtitle file.
- Choose Export video when you want a downloadable video with the subtitles visible.
Questions
Should I download a subtitle file or a video with subtitles?
Choose SRT or VTT when the player supports switchable subtitles. Choose Export video when the text needs to stay visible in the downloaded video.
Can I change how the subtitles look?
Yes. Export video includes a preview where you can adjust the font, size, colour, outline, and position before downloading.
Can the subtitles use another language?
Yes. Translate the reviewed transcript, check the original and translation together, and download the translated subtitle file or video.
Can I correct the text first?
Yes. The transcript is editable before any subtitle file or video download, so names and important terms can be checked once and reused.
