How to make an SRT file

SRT – SubRip Subtitle — is a caption file format.

In fact, you can make an SRT file even in Word or Notepad and just save it with the needed extension, but it will be a very long and tiresome process. You’ll have to check the timing of each line in the initial video and set it manually, then format the text in a special way.

It’s much easier to use an SRT file creator — for example, Clideo’s one.

Our tool is compatible with all devices, so you can create an SRT file on Mac or PC, iOS, or Android. It works online, so you don’t have to look for special applications, download them, install and set them up — it’s ready to use right away.

It’s extremely secure because the website is encrypted with SSL protocol and only you can access your project.

Upload a video

Import a recording from your device by clicking "Choose file". The SRT maker allows adding a file located online — just call the drop-down menu on the right side of the pane. There, select it from one of the listed cloud storage accounts.

Step

Create SRT file

If you want to edit a subtitle file, add it by clicking "Upload .SRT". Otherwise, hit "Add manually" to create it from scratch. Write captions in the pane on the right side of the player. Set the time manually or use the timeline to set the timing. In the "Styles" tab, change how the captions should look like. When you’re ready, save the created SRT caption file separately by clicking "Download .SRT". If you want to save the video with burned-in hard subtitles, click "Export".

Step

Download the result

Take a last glance at your clip. If there are no flaws, save it to the Cloud or your personal device. If you think it could be better, click "Edit" and keep trying.

The best video editor. I've already tried out a lot of video editors, but this is the best one. It has everything in there, unlike others that need a lot of other websites to do different things. Thank you so much.
