Subtitle file format

VTT subtitle files for web video and review

VTT is common in web players and review workflows. TimedSubs keeps VTT tied to the same script-first timing and quality contract as SRT.

Input example

approved-script.txt + voiceover.wav before exporting VTT

Output asset example

a reviewed VTT subtitle file with quality status preserved

Common review point

A subtitle line overlaps or reads too fast, so export should pause until it is reviewed.

Decision points

Best use

Use VTT when a web player, review page, or HTML5 video workflow expects WebVTT rather than SRT.

TimedSubs angle

Generate VTT from the same aligned subtitle timeline, so SRT and VTT exports stay consistent.

Delivery risk

Keep line length, reading speed, overlap, and ordering checks visible before sending VTT to a client or web team.

Practical workflow

  1. 1

    Create a Script + Audio project.

  2. 2

    Inspect subtitle line timing and quality notes.

  3. 3

    Export VTT for web or review surfaces.

Product boundary

TimedSubs prepares the subtitle asset. Your web player, CMS, or video host remains the publishing surface.

FAQ

Is VTT better than SRT?

It depends on the destination. SRT is widely portable; VTT is often better for web players.

Can I export both?

Yes, when your plan and quality status allow both formats.
