SRT to VTT

Convert SRT Subtitles to WebVTT Format Online

SubRip (.srt) and WebVTT (.vtt) are the two most popular subtitle file formats used on the web. While SRT is older and supported by almost all offline video players, WebVTT is the standard format for modern HTML5 web video players (like <video> tags, YouTube, Vimeo, and video players on iOS/Android).

SRT vs WebVTT: What's the Difference?

WebVTT is based on the SRT format but contains a few specific syntactic changes:

• Header: WebVTT files must start with the string WEBVTT at the very beginning of the file.
• Timestamp Separator: SRT uses a comma (,) to separate seconds and milliseconds (e.g. 00:01:20,500), while WebVTT uses a dot (.) (e.g. 00:01:20.500).
• Styling Options: WebVTT supports advanced CSS styling, cue positioning, and alignments.

How to Convert SRT to VTT

1. Copy the contents of your SRT subtitle file and paste it in the left editor box, or upload your `.srt` file.
2. The converter will immediately adjust the timing format, add the required WebVTT header, and show the converted WebVTT code on the right.
3. Download the file as a `.vtt` file, or copy the output directly.
