SUBTITLE EDIT: complete tutorial

- Subtitle Edit is one of the most famous open source subtitle editors out there, and I can totally see why!
It's user-friedly, and it allows you to auto-translate your subtitles in many other languages.
This 7-minute tutorial will explain everything you need to know about this software!
Subtitles available in English, Italian, French and Spanish.
If you want to learn more about my work, make sure to check my website:
www.claudialat...
To generate subtitles there's a very useful function under "video/audio to text" which can use Vosk speech models to generate subtitles from the audio data.
This also need manual corrections, but saves a lot of typing. The speech models exist in quite a few languages, although the English one is probably the best one.
@@ericvieira68 yes exactly! I made another video about automatic subtitles 😊
I used to do subtitling for Netflix and prime videos and many other clients now it brings me those memories
that's so cool! In what languages?
@@subtitlingwithclaudia Telugu (Indian Language) Hindi and other regional Languages a I have a team
What software did you use, brother?
Ooo it's very intriguing to see what was going on behind the scenes when you were transcribing/translating my videos!
Thanks for the constant support ❤️
Thank you so much! This is a fantastic tutorial and got me started right away. You're the best, Claudia! 🙏
aww thank you so much, it means a lot!
love this claudia!! I want to see more from your channel 🥰
I'll do my best to be consistent! 😆
Great tutorial, Claudia, grazie mille!
you're very welcome!!
Good job Claudia! Keep the good work.
Thank you so much!
I need help with converting the audio file to text in Bulgarian. Vosk does not include Bulgarian unfortunately. I looked for Help in the App and read about something called So how do I get instead of for the Speech Recognition, so I can get the text file?
Hi! Just click on Video > Audio to text (whisper). You should have both whisper and vosk as options. If not, try and download a different version of the software :)
Very insightful video, you explained everything in a way that makes it look like it's pretty easy! Thank you ☺
🥰🥰
Come faccio ad ingrandire il carattere del sottotitolo nel video?
Hello Claudia. Thanks so much for this tutorial. I was wondering how to get started but you have made it easy for me. Kindly guide me on how to make the subtitles closed or open.
Hi! So the difference would be on exporting the file: if you want closed captions, it means they are burned into the video (I have another tutorial for how to do this), but if you export the SRT file separately (file > save as) it means they're open and you can switch them on and off as you please
@@subtitlingwithclaudia Thanks for the response. What is a VVT file?
@@johnstonetungani4885 VTT stands for Web Video Text Tracks, it's another subtitle format and it's pretty similar to the SRT but it's more "versatile"
hey ma'am, its shows like - VLC was unable to extract audio data to wave file!
Command line: C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe "G:\workshop on oral histor************************ etc - 23.wav}" vlc://quit
Note: Do check free disk space. when we upload videos in wave -- but there is enough space and is there any solution?
as the movie is playing and you have the subtitle entered, how do you make the exact text that appears in the movie at that moment appear automatically in the box on the left?
Hey, do you mean in this software or afterwards, while playing the movie with VLC or other players?
Thanks. This was Epic! and Very Helpful!
@@nkenfabrandon3832 thanks!!
This was helpful, thank you!
I'm glad, thank you for watching 😊
Love your conciseness.
@@annalaszlo2837 thanks!!
it's helpful thanks ma'am.
@@mehrdad4784 you're welcome!
Great beginners tutorial. Thank you ! Just one thing I hope you can advise on. I have an accurate srt file but it gradually loses sync as it plays using KM player. Is there a way to do a global change to, say fix the last line and one of the early lines and have it automatically adjust the time codes of the intervening lines ? Many thanks for considering this.
@@AsFewFalseThingsAsPossible hi! Have a look at my last video, there's a section about batch adjusting the timing so the video is in sync again!
@@subtitlingwithclaudia OK thanks !
Great tutorial, thanks Claudia!
Happy it helped!
Hi Claudia. I don't know this software and thanks to your video it looks very interesting and with many tools, so I'm getting to work and I'm using it
I have a question: I add a video (it doesn't have subs), on the other hand I add the subs and I sync and edit them... but I don't know how to save the video with the subs attached?
I would like to have as a result: the video with the subs embedded 👏
Can you guide me
Thank you very much Claudia 🤗
@@Tetsuo-7 hi, thanks! Check out my video on how to burn subtitles into a video, it's exactly what you're asking 😊
@@subtitlingwithclaudia You're right, I didn't notice 🤦♂
It's in: video->Generate video with burned-in subtitle...
You're Awesome Claudia 🤗
Molto interessante! Mollti penseranno che sia facile e rapido creare dei sottotitoli per un video ma penso che invece è tutto il contrario! Continua così 🔥
Grazie 🥰
This was so incredibly helpful
Thank you so much!!
I wonder if it is possible to change the subtitle font type and font size
@@seolyuki1280 it is! The tutorial is pretty much at the beginning of this video: czcams.com/video/VJWIomDf-mo/video.htmlsi=I-zaBOQvcO0ROANJ 😊
Great video, thanks! it helped me a lot.
I appreciate it! Thanks for watching
Hello! There is a chance to select lines, for example, from line 363 to line 784 and not with ctrl button and left click because it takes a lot of time. I've tried with odd numbers and then with even numbers but you must deselect a lot. I will be very happy if you will tell me the right answer. Maybe it's a simple way and it is my fault. Thanks!
Hi, how are you. If you need to select several lines of already created subtitles, you position yourself with the mouse on the first line you want to select, (CTRL+left click) and then by holding down CTRL + the down or up arrow the rest of the lines that you want are selected. you want :(ctrl+⬆) or (ctrl +⬇)
Thank you, this video helped me a lot.
Thanks for the feedback 🙂
Thank youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Claudia! You're awesome
You're very welcome! 😃
Thank you! I have a question - what to do, if you have done your subtitles, but after all you want to cut one scene from a movie, and adjust subtitles, which are after these scene? So - how to move checked subtitles 10 second backwords, so that all timecodes were corrected at once?
Hi, I hope I understood correctly! Try this: edit, select all, then right click > "selected lines" > show selected lines earlier/later
Hola Claudia, te estoy escribiendo desde Argentina, un placer conocerte, te hago una pregunta, seguí todos tus pasos como indica el video que realizaste, ahora me podés decir como hacer para exportar la pelicula con los subtitulos incorporados. un saludo y espero tu respuesta, Muchas gracias genia.
@@jorge09330 Hola! Si quieres exportar tu película con los subtitulos, mira mi video "how to burn subtitles into your video" 😊
@@subtitlingwithclaudia Gracias Claudia, voy a intentarlo, luego me gustaría que me digas como hacer para cambiar un subtitulo de una pelicula que está en inglés y que lo pueda traucir en español. porque quiero ver la pelicula sonido de libertad pero subtitulada y no puedo ubicar los subtitulos en español, te reitero las gracias.
Hello Claudia. Great overview of this software that I am just beginning to learn as I am entering the subtitling world. My question is: can I setup a foot pedal (same as what is being used for transcribing) to work with Subtitle Edit? Thank you so much!
Hey! I've never used it but I did some research and I don't think you can use that with Subtitle Edit unfortunately
How to keep/see only translated subtitles? (not together with original) Did I missed that part?
Hi! If it bothers you, you could save the translated file, then open the video again and only import that one file without the original one!
@@subtitlingwithclaudia Ok, cool, thanks.
Hi how are ypu? I have tried it and the program is fantastic and your tutorial is very well explained and simple. But I have a question: I want to create styles of different colors for each character in a series (the subs will be in .ass format so that styles like this are compatible). I have already figured out how to create the styles but my question is the following: The built-in player only shows the subs in the color and font designated in the program settings so I cannot preview how they look. Is there a way to do it? Thanks in advance.
Hi! So sorry I missed your comment! If you select the word, right click and change the color or font, you should be able to also have a preview button! If not, maybe try and download an updated version
Thank you for you instructions, very useful! But I cannot see the sound waves. Can you help me? Tks!!
Try and click on the black bar (where the soundwaves are supposed to be), the software should then show them to you!
@@subtitlingwithclaudia thank you for your response but I found out that I have not downloaded the video to my PC and I was using the video from CZcams directly. When I downloaded the video, everything was fixed. Thanks again!🌸
Hello. If, after subtitling, I edit the video (make it shorter), do I have to do the process again?
@@skanda.skanda hey no you don't have to! Here's the tutorial: czcams.com/video/VJWIomDf-mo/video.htmlsi=4j5X2FrQTbSwqcL8 Minute 2:25 😊
@@subtitlingwithclaudia thank you so much
Hello,
Do you know if it is possible to edit specific words? like change the colours or highligth specific words?
Hey! Yes you can: once you have the subtitles, select the words you'd like to change in terms of font or color, right click, and then choose between bold, italic, underline, color and font 🙂 If you need a quick tutorial about it, please let me know!
@@subtitlingwithclaudiaThank you for your answer. Have a nice day.
Hi Claudia 👋
I'm inserting subtitles into a video. I do all the work, create the new video, go to watch it... but the subtitles look pixelated, as if they were a pale white color
On the other hand, using Subtitle Edit, the subtitles look perfectly white
Do you know what could be happening? 🤔
@@Tetsuo-7 so weird! Try to check the subtitle settings when you're exporting it
@@subtitlingwithclaudia Hi Claudia, thanks for your reply 👏
Before exporting I check the font, the color which is white (FDFDFDFF and/or FFFFFF), I export... but the subtitles still look like they are of very low quality
Is it a codec problem, or a plugin, or is it the software?
Is this weird? 😐
Does the Video>Open video file generate soundwave instantly for every video? It usually takes like a minute or two to generate if you do it manually.
It should only take a couple of seconds to generate!
Thanks, Claudia, I cannot find the tool for lines of subtitles (3 lines, each starting at a different time) and I would like to change them to standard 2 lines (first above, second below, then they disappear and after start to new sub)
Hi! Did you try and change it on the settings? Options > settings > general > max. number of lines 😊
Hi, is this available for Mac? Can you share me a link, please?
@@My.dimplesRock Hi, I'm not sure but you can try through this link: github.com/SubtitleEdit/subtitleedit/releases
i wanna subtitle animes with it but i dont know how to save the file as mp4 or similar. the audio is japanese so i add japanese vosk audio to text. then i have japanese text as subtitle and then i do auto translate to german and the japanese subtitle text switches into german subtitles. but i have no clue how i can save it as an mp4 etc all the options i see i never saw that data type before and my player dont play these
Hi! What do you mean by mp4? The video with the impressed translated subtitles?
Can we generate an auto Subtitle rather than writing on your own?
@@saadabdeen5380 yes absolutely! Watch the video I posted right after this one and you'll have the tutorial 😊
Nice tutorial, I have a question as when I change the font appearance (not preview), I'm wondering how to load those font parameters by default.
Hi, thanks! If you head to options > settings > appearance and choose the font/size/color and then hit "ok", these parameters should stay the same every time you use the software! You can always go back there and change them or restore the default ones
@@subtitlingwithclaudiaThanks Claudia, I think that is for the UI only, as in the preview window we see :) I'm sorry I wasn't specific enough. I have been editing the subtitles for a television series, and it uses .ass style, there is a option to change the styles of the .ass files. I was just hoping there is a way to make those styles default so its quick to edit the whole tv shows subtitles
How can I adjust the start time of the video and change the color playout to yellow?
Hey! To change the colour of the subtitles head to options > settings > appearance and change the "subtitle font color" ☺ What do you mean by adjusting the start time?
@@subtitlingwithclaudia Some videos from agencies start at 00:59:40:00 or so... and you need to change it, if not the temporization would start at 00:00:00:00 and it won't work.
How to export SRT file after writing subtitles
Just click on file > save as 😊
Hi Claudia! how do you add music symbols as you type in the subtitle using subtitle edit? Thank you!
hello ! As you are, in the box where you are writing the subtitle, by right clicking with the mouse you will see different options at the end of the list you will see the option 'insert unicode symbol' you will see several symbols, choose the one you need. I hope it has been useful to you 😊
@negramotatallesgrandes thank you! Will try this later. Client suddenly requested to have the notes added to subs of lyrics. I could not find how to do it in visual subsync so I'm switching to using subtitle edit.
@@karissasanchez-wx5px It is a very versatile program, I think it will be very useful to you.
On the other hand, I wanted to ask you how you get clients, that is, on what platform? I would appreciate the information, since I am just starting out in this profession and I am not sure where to start. Thank you so much 😊😊
@@Silvia.M72tried it, thanks! Now, why does the netflix check say have to use code for the ellipses? Can't it just be 3 dots? Does subtitle edit have an option that just inserts ellipses?
@@Silvia.M72re: clients, this one's just a special case since I've worked w the director of the material and am familiar with it.
Is anyone else seeing the software crash when using the subtitle edit, using the merge lines feature.
That's weird, it never happened to me. Try to uninstal the software and download it again!
@@subtitlingwithclaudia i have done it 10 times..... But when ever i try to merge the current line with the next line.... The software get hang/crashed.
Although, merge as dialog and merge with previous line , both of these options are working absolutely correctly
@@007tabz that's so weird!
I don't generally comment on CZcams however thank you so much ✨
Thank you so much ❤️
Where can this software be downloaded from?
@@MaraEscu just type "Subtitle Edit download" on Google and try one of the first links 😊
Thanks claudy

Hello madame, which translation engine do you think is the best? I personally think Google Translate v1 is quite subpar in terms of quality

Nice video, but I was asking why you did'nt use vosk ai to make the subtitles faster? You will find that on video... audio to text (vosk/kaldi) first time you have to download a vosk ai model on your language just clic on ... then select and download with the video loaded just clic on generate, I know its not perfect but it's very accurate and then just manually fix it, there's a huge different if you do the subtitles using that powerful tool, I speak spanish sorry if I make some mistakes on my message I tried to do my best, have a nice day. Si de casualidad hay alguien que hable español para simplificar lo que dije, en video -> audio a texto(vosk/kaldi) pueden generar los subtitulos de forma automatica, no es perfecto pero es bastante bueno solo revisan y arreglan manualmente los pequeños errores y listo asi hacen los sibtitulos muchisimo mas rapidos, saludos

Hi! How do I proceed if I have the text (the script with which I recorded the voice in the studio) and I want to turn it into srt (put the text segments on the voice). Is it possible to upload a text file to work with, without having to take each fragment and arrange it by voice?
Hi! Just to make sure, you'd like to turn your text file into subtitles, right? Do you have a recording to upload?
Hi! Yes, I have a text and I have a voice (and video) that read the text. Can I use this software to convert text to srt? Of course, without having to copy/paste every line. I was wondering if he recognizes the voice/words and knows how to arrange them on the lines.
@@TravelClips-ro yes, Subtitle Edit also allows you to do that! I will make another quick tutorial on it real soon, I hope it will help! 😊
