Small tip to anyone splitting the subtitles up letter-by-letter to get the rolling effect... Aegisub will do it automatically if you change the code in curly braces to be a capital K rather than a lowercase k. It's also much smoother. Only downside is it you have to do it for every single k, and it possibly takes longer to do that than to split the letters up. But it definitely looks more professional imo.
I recommend using Notepad++
Ctrl+F then go to Replace tab
Put {\k on the Find what:
And {\K on the Replace with: t
Then click Replace All on the left side and there you go!
@@crowarmbrust1903 or you can do the same thing directly in Aegisub, with ctrl+h
@@willhendrix3140 There is even easier way to do this (maybe added at one point with new version). Right click on karaoke text line (the that appears after clicking on toggle karaoke mode at 7:12) and select which tag you want to use.
@@Medan1993 Best comment, \kf should be the default.
@@Asdayasman I agree. Now that I learned that, I always right click and select \kf, right after separating syllabs (with that mode, no need to separate all letters). I found in the documentation that \K is the same as \K.
If someone discover a way to make it default, please warn us. But if not, it's already practical to do.
I've been watching your series for the past couple days. Didn't realize your website was where i got the fonts I've been using in my videos until now- thanks for being a great tutor, an avid supporter of freeware, and an open and honest mentor! And thanks for the resources! Your tutorial styles earned you a bell activated sub.
You know how some karaokes have two lines on screen at once and you can ALWAYS see the next line before the current one is over? This helps the singer a lot, and I wish I could make karaoke videos like that.
In this part czcams.com/video/x1X8kjKHusM/video.html he explains how toadd a second line. You may use it to show the next line, ahead. Maybe that's only a workaround and there's a function to show the next passage, ahead. Would be easier.
@@skyletwings5711 He adds \N to break the line, right? But I think there's an easier way (didn't test it yet, but discovered in another video that it probably works). Just include 2 lines at the same time, the second will appear automatically below the first if both are showing up simultaneously. So you do the karaoke effect for the first line and, when it's over, this line disappears at the same time a third line appears, and then the karaoke effect starts for the second line.
So, for example, if the first 3 lines appear for 10 seconds each, it'll be like this:
0:00 - 0:10 First line
0:00 - 0:20 Second line (starts karaoke effect at 0:10)
0:10 - 0:30 Third line (starts karaoke effect at 0:20)
So it always shows 2 lines, with a preview of the next line.
I'll try it myself later and if it really works easily as I think, I'll confirm here.
Aprendeu a fazer com 2 linhas?
@@weezytc I finally took my time to create my first karaoke and found out a way to have 2 lines properly. Having 2 at the same time makes one of them appear below the other (or above, if the previous one is already below). It works very well.
Steps:
- After syncing each line, select karaoke mode
- Starting from the second line, click before the first word, adding a blank space (to add time to the line before it starts)
- (optional) Right click on that text and select \kf (so the effect will be to fill the letters - no need to make it letter by letter, by syllab is enough)
- Click the button above the text, that says "Add the lead in time [...]" many times. It adds 0,20 seconds before, each time you press. I like to click it 5 times (giving 1 second before the line starts, so the singer will have time to know what to sing, but it can be as much time as you want).
The result is that each line appears before the other dissappears, above or below. I really enjoyed the result.
@@weezytc Desculpe, respondi em inglês e só prestei atenção agora que você falou em português kkkk. Resumindo, inclua um tempo sem palavras antes de cada verso, de forma que o segundo verso apareça antes de terminar o primeiro. Isso faz com que automaticamente mostre cada verso em uma linha diferente, ora embaixo, ora em cima. Fica ótimo o resultado. :) No comentário em inglês, dou mais detalhes de como faz isso de forma simples.
I stumble on your tutorial while making subs for anime ending, and here you are, using as example one of my favorite songs! Cool, thanks!
Godbless you for these awesome tuts for Aegisub! I'm a newbie at this and so far I'm enjoying it! Thanks man!
You're welcome. Happy to help!
@@TJFREE Hey man I've seen CZcams videos with Closed Captions that seemd to have a karaoke effect. Do you mind making video tutorials on how to do that? I haven't found a single thing about it when I tried to search on Google.
It can be also customized to be re-positioned to where the user wanted it to be. But afaik, CZcams doesn't allow .ass subtitles so I don't know how they do it :o Greatly appreciated man!
like your work
Wow, just what I was looking for. Subscribing.
Hi TJ,
Is there a way to have the karaoke animation go from right to left, for languages that are written RTL?
Thank you very much for a clear and beautiful explanation. I wanted to point out that the subtitles in karaoke flow from left to right, and it would be interesting to know if there is a possibility that it will flow from right to left like in Hebrew and Arabic. Thank you.
Is there a way to copy and paste whole verse lyrics and timings? Control C/V seems to just add a new line but with the original start time.
I made a karaoke sub video and hard code it through VLC Media Player but the hardsubbed video has the subs I put in but doesn't have the karaoke effect where the subs change color as the timing of the song goes on. What is it I need to do?
hello TJ, do you have other solution to render the karaoke template ? because i did like you with the VLC stream but it never work for me 😒😢
I don't know if it's the reason I heard it repeatedly over and over in the tutorial... But you aren't terrible at singing dude. It's pretty good actually!! Anyways, thanks for the tutorial. Liked & Subscribed 🙌 keep up the good work. Peace.
Thanks so much, you made my day!
Thanks!
HELP!!: When I stream the video using vlc the final product is just 30seconds long although my video is 4minutes long. Help!!
Sir, is there a way to give space b/w individual letters automatically rather than giving the space manually?
i liked ur lessond can u do RTL ? plz
Awesome thanks for sharing this video sir. New subscriber.
how to make a change the border " to be chnaged the color base on the Timing". so far your video the border is tsill keep the black color. If We need the color be chnaged to white & move as the timing. how to do it. I try many ways, it looks can't be done by augisub. or any other effect to improve it ?
can i download this software in windows 10??
what is the difference between rendering and hardcoding??
is it possible to color the text from right to left (for hebrew)?
You switched the color into blue but it didn't show up, is it because you didn't save it or something else!
Good question. The blue background was just a place holder / dummy video since I was working on the lyrics before adding in a video clip.
What did you mean at 4:37 when you said "I' could just load the video in now but I'm gonna end up having to loop that video over and over again."?
I'm only guessing here but I imagine that the video is shorter than the song, so it's going to have to repeat.
I have tried to add it multiple times in the vlc stream, but that doesn't do the job.
Is it possible to make a line show up some time BEFORE the first letter/syllable/word lights up?
You decide when to show which lines. You can put the start marker (red) earlier. If it conflikts with the currently running line, add another line.
it was a tutorial so just doing 2 or 3 lines would work (no need to stretch it)
You could be right. Thanks for the feedback!
I'm usually hardcoded the subs using virtualdub and trying to find another one that more efficient. Any suggestion?
I'm on a Mac, and it looks like Kdenlive isn't supported very well. Is there an alternative program I can use to stitch things together?
Did you try using VLC to play and record the video and the subs altogether?
Save before editing
i spent hours downloading all of this and working on in Aegisub only for VLC not to look ANYTHING like what you have on your screen. there is no stream button. i have "convert/stream" that's it. ive played around with it created multiple files and none of them work or even open. not sure if anyone using a mac knows how to fix this... or if ive just wasted hours of my life...
ok i figured it out if this is happening to anyone else, make sure you're rendering the file to save as mp4 not as a kdenlive file which is what it autosaves as. then you'll be able to use it in VLC
I completed my project which is about 3:30 but once it completed it only plays a minute and a half. Does anyone know a fix to this?
Thanks
have you checked the frame rate? is there anything missing?
@@mihaelandnate1 LOL I figured it out! The background animation was only a minute and a half long. I just extended it and that resolved the issue. Thanks!
0:14 18 and Life?
I did understand nothing bruhh
You make this so complicated by not doing this and that and then telling us what you forgot to do, just edit it, and make it straight forward, you keep jumping to other things and other programs, and yo use VLC, i dont use vlc so how do i save the file without it
