Why hand-writing SRT files goes wrong
The SRT format looks trivial, but real files fail validation constantly: milliseconds written with a dot instead of a comma, missing blank lines between cues, overlapping time ranges, BOM/encoding issues that turn Hindi or Tamil text into mojibake. A generated file sidesteps the whole class of errors.
Encoding deserves special mention for Indian languages — an SRT saved in the wrong encoding shows ’ garbage instead of Devanagari. Exports here are always UTF-8, which YouTube and modern players expect.
Need WebVTT instead? Convert the exported file with the free SRT to VTT tool — same content, web-native format.

Frequently asked questions
What exactly is an SRT file?
SubRip Text — a plain-text subtitle format: cue number, time range (00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:03,500), then the text. It's the most widely accepted subtitle format in existence.
Which platforms accept SRT?
YouTube, Vimeo, LinkedIn, Facebook, VLC, QuickTime, Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, and virtually every video player or editor with subtitle support.
Can I create an SRT without watching the whole video?
Yes — that's the point of generating it. The AI transcribes the full audio; you spot-check the lines instead of typing them.
SRT or VTT — which do I need?
SRT for uploads to video platforms and editors; VTT for HTML5 web players. They carry the same content and convert losslessly either way.
