Automatic Subtitles · Selection guide
Choose the destination first: captions burned into the video, or a separate SRT/VTT file? Burned-in text becomes part of the picture; separate tracks can be toggled in compatible players. Speech recognition and translation into another language are different capabilities.
Use a short recording to check recognition, timing and the editing controls. Mobile and web versions may have different minute allowances, watermarks and export terms. The table's content-language support applies only to the documented version; check other languages separately.
Before publishing, correct names, numbers and line breaks. On vertical video, check that platform buttons do not cover the captions. Preview the exported file at its destination. Do not assume automatic recognition is flawless or that a free preview includes free downloading.
