How to use it
Subtitle file
Accepts SRT and VTT with each line's in and out times. A numbering error in the lines makes the whole file be refused.
Style
Text size, colour and background box are adjustable to guarantee reading over bright scenes.
Permanent burn-in
Subtitles become part of the picture. Keep the original SRT if the texts need editing later.
Examples in practice
Accessible lesson
A reviewed SRT is burned into a 20-minute lesson and the video becomes understandable without audio.
Social media video
VTT lines are recorded with a dark background for reading on a small muted screen.
Frequently asked questions
Can I keep subtitles as a separate track?
Here the text is burned into the picture. For a separate track, publish the SRT file alongside the video on the platform.
Are the line timings respected?
Yes, each line enters and leaves at the time indicated in the file, as long as it is within the video's duration.
