An SRT file pairs numbered caption blocks with start and end times. Upload a video to VideoTranscriptGen, generate its transcript, review the timed segments, and export the result as SRT.
SRT is widely accepted by video editors and publishing platforms because it keeps captions separate from the video. That lets you correct wording or replace the subtitle track without rendering the video again.
Automated timestamps provide a useful starting point, but captions still need a human pass. Check that names and numbers are correct, breaks occur at natural phrases, and each caption stays on screen long enough to read. Listen closely where speakers overlap or background audio is loud.
Most editors and video platforms offer an option named “Captions,” “Subtitles,” or “Import SRT.” Import the exported file alongside the same version of the video that was transcribed. If the video was trimmed after transcription, its timing will be offset; generate the captions from the final cut instead.
Choose SRT for synchronized captions. Choose TXT for articles, notes, quotations, or search. Both come from the same transcript, so you can keep a readable record while publishing a timed subtitle track.
