Background
Use Cases
- Change extension of TXT file to SRT
- In most cases your file is already in the SRT file format. All that must be done is change it's extension from .txt to .srt. This tool does that and automatically downloads the output as a .srt file. You can use this subtitle file with a video player of your choice.
- Introduce timestamps in plain text subtitle
- In this case all you have are lines of subtitles with no timestamp information whatsoever. The tool does it's best to introduce timestamps for each line of lyrics by considering the length of the line, how many words & characters are in it and the Start/End time you provide.
Srt
SRT is a subtitle file format generated by the SubRip software. A time range (start to end) precedes each line of subtitle. Video players show the subtitle on the screen when the video is within this period.
