TEXT, TIMING, TOGETHER

Subtitle Editor

A quiet place to fix the words and the timing. Import SRT or VTT, scrub the video, then export the cues as text or burn them into the picture.

OPTIONAL PREVIEW

Add the video the cues belong to.

A local preview makes timing edits visible. You can also import and edit subtitles without one.

Nothing is uploaded. One video at a time.

CUES

Text and timing.

No cues yet.

Import SRT / VTT, load the example, or add a cue.
Import a subtitle file or add the first cue.
THREE SMALL EDITS

Read it against the picture.

01 / BRING

Import cues, add a video.

Open an SRT or VTT file and, if you have it, the video it belongs to. The preview is optional; the cue editor works without one.

02 / FIX

Adjust text and timing.

Click a cue to jump to its moment. Edit the text inline or type a new timecode; the active cue follows the playhead.

03 / EXPORT

Text or burned-in video.

Download the cues as SRT or VTT, or burn them into the picture as an MP4 or WebM. Invalid ranges are flagged before export, so a backwards cue is never written to disk.

WHAT THIS EDITOR IS

A timing desk that shows its work.

01

Your words, precisely timed.

Import your existing SRT or VTT file, or write cues manually. Adjust each line against the local video preview before exporting.

02

A playhead you can see.

The video preview is decoded locally. Clicking a cue seeks to its start; playback highlights the cue that is currently on screen.

03

No hidden conversions.

Cue text is exported as written. WebVTT alignment or position settings are not invented when you export SRT.

A FEW GOOD QUESTIONS

Before you touch a timecode.

Does it transcribe audio into subtitles?

No. Import existing SRT or VTT subtitles, or write the cues manually. This editor does not download speech models.

Can I export the subtitles as a video?

Yes, when a video is open. Burning subtitles into the picture means every frame is redrawn and re-encoded, so the export runs in real time: a two-minute clip takes about two minutes, and the tab must stay in the foreground. The available MP4 or WebM format depends on browser support. Exports are capped at a 1920px longest edge and ten minutes.

Can I edit subtitles without a video?

Yes. Import an SRT or VTT file, add cues and export without opening any video. The preview is only there to make timing decisions easier to see.

How are overlapping cues handled?

Overlaps are allowed and exported in the order shown. The editor only stops a cue whose end is at or before its own start, because that cannot be represented honestly in either format.

What are the limits?

Up to 500 cues and a 2 MB subtitle file. The optional video depends on what your browser can decode; a long or unsupported video can still be edited blind if you import the cues separately.

Are my subtitles or video uploaded?

No. Parsing, editing and export happen in this page. The video is opened through a temporary local URL and released when you leave the page.
