Original subtitles

I recently posted the video tutorial on subtitle eighty two which by the way you can

finding the description below in case you haven't watched it

and i received the comments asking if it's possible

to create an srt file which is the subtitle file

from a knowledgeable or text file

well the answer is yes and i'm here to show you how to do that step by step

disclaimer as usual

the results won't be perfect and you will have

to make some adjustments on this incarnation part

but it's still easier and faster than making subtitles from scratch which would be

pretty convenient since you already have a transcription of the audio

what you need these the text of course

and neither other the audio over the video file

in this video i will show you how to make

subtitles out of an audio file or a text file

so let's begin and.

I extracted the audio from one of my old videos

right here

and i have their transcription of eat

on the notepad.

So this this option number one which is creating

automatically subtitles just using the audio file

you can of course our typing and synchronizing this of titles manually

but this is not the purpose of this video

and again if you want to do that and learn how to make subtitles

manually

you can watch my previous video where a explain how to do that that on subtitle edit

so

now let's heads to subtitle edit

the software

and i know i have been talking about all years but you will need to head to be

appear then

open media file

and then you can click here

and select.

Audio file

now now you can pick your m p three file

at this point if this software one sure you

anything you can click on the black barden here

and add the way from and this software were basically

it for you within a few seconds

so now there you go your audio file is radio.

Now head back to.

Video

and click to audio to text

first chose the language which would be English in my case

and then i would recommend you to check the or to add just timing and used

processing

which will make the result more accurate.

Appear on the top part of their window

you will see a few engines you can choose from

I've used cpp

as default engine

and then i selected based dot him and there were probably ask you to download

something real quick so just through that

now let's hit

generate

and wait for subtitle idiot it to transcribe the audio

text

it shouldn't take more than a mean the a teacher audio file isn't too heavy.

For

a few moments later

there you go you will now have a pretty good transcription of the audio

and you can start correcting them stakes the length and everything manually

as you can already see here

i have an eighteen seconds subtitle which is nuts

and sometimes the software couldn't pick up the

audio properly as so i'm going to quickly change that

please don't trust the soft to her blindly and make sure to listen to the Audra again

and or through the automatic subtitles.

Okay so let's say and then

and now you can click corner file.

Save as

and let's say

we will type something like.

Subtitle

and.

One

and you can save now the a sub reap file

okay so there you go now let's go for option number two

let's say you don't want to do what we just deeds

and you want to use your text file and generate subtitles from that one

please can

open.

And choose your text file.

On the left side you will see your text

on the bottom the preview of the subtitles

bullet said to the right side and go through some settings as for the input options

and going to jets or

split text

here

down here i will set to lines and the round forty five the characters per line

let's also check generate time codes

and i will change the gap between subtitles to twenty milliseconds

now let's hit

ok

and then you can import the audio file to make sure the subtitles are good.

So same as we did before

had to

video

open mediafire

choose the audio file

and click it.

Again you will have to make some changes for sure

but it's going to save a lot of time

at this point you might settle for the subtitles that the software created

but i want because

of a very precise person and also subtitling is my job

so i know there are certain parameters to respect

to wake the best subtitles possible

in these industry we all talk about the invisible translator

so a good translator is the one who makes his presence go unnoticed

as for the subtitles you need to put yourself in the v your shoes

and you know you've made a good job if this appetizers looks more

correct

have no type was

and make the view uneasy and effortless

so for example you should and split the sentence like that

this choose of titles

you should try

not to make it hard for a person to keep up and understand the whole diet log properly

so what i will do it is these for example.

He could like me to work on a fire and show you in detail everything i do all the

changes are make can all denunciations they take

then let me know and i will be very happy to share that with your

and that is a guys i hope he was clear and easy to understand

but if is the a struggling or you have some more questions

just feel free to come and amilo and we are a walk and that together by.
