Good to know
Subtitle generator questions
Can I get only the SRT file?+
Yes. Choose SRT-only delivery when you do not want captions burned into the media.
Does it translate automatically?+
No. It preserves the spoken language unless you explicitly request translation.
How many lines are used?+
Standard subtitles use at most two lines; word-by-word captions generally use a compact single-line layout.
