How to download subtitles
More than simply reviewing your subtitles, you can download them and change whatever you want. To do so, follow the step-by-step instructions below.
- Enter the desired content and click Generate Subtitles
- After the process is finished, the Download Subtitles option will appear. Click on it and wait for it to download
- Then, open the file, and make the necessary changes. Remember that the file will open with the correct timing for each excerpt because we’ve already synchronized the audio with the subtitles. Check out the example below:
So, just be careful when making changes so that the audio is still in sync. Let's suppose that the subtitle is "How to create ad copy for launches". If you want to change it to "How to create an awesome ad copy for digital launches", be aware that you’re adding to the content and it might get out of sync with the video.
- Save the file on your computer
- To upload the new subtitles, click Send Subtitles
