SUB to SRT Converter

Text SUB
SRT

Two text formats, and the picture format this page skips

MicroDVD stores {start}{end}text in frames. The first line has to be the frame rate, written like a cue whose two numbers match and whose text is the rate, for example {1}{1}23.976. A | in the text becomes a line break.

SubViewer text already has clocks, 00:00:01.00,00:00:04.00, and the caption on the following lines. [br] becomes a line break. Those clocks are copied. They are not estimated.

A .idx file that says VobSub, or a timestamp line with filepos, is an index of pictures. This page stops there. It does not OCR them. ASS is ASS to SRT. SAMI is SMI to SRT. A Word document from the SRT is the SRT to Word converter.

SUB questions

Frame rate, line breaks, and why an IDX file stops.

Why does a MicroDVD file ask for a frame rate?

Those cues are frame numbers, not clocks. Put a line such as {1}{1}23.976 or {1}{1}25.000 first. This page will not guess 23.976 or 25 for you.

What does the vertical bar mean?

In MicroDVD, a | inside the cue is a line break. It becomes a new line in the SRT, not a character you have to delete.

Can this read a .sub plus .idx pair?

No. A VobSub index points at pictures. This page does not OCR those pictures. It only reads MicroDVD and SubViewer text.

Is the .sub uploaded?

No. The .srt is built in your browser. See the Privacy Policy.
