How it works
- Upload the video
Tap Upload video and pick an MP4, MOV, WebM or another video, up to 2 GB.
- Add your subtitle file
The editor opens on Text, the subtitles tool. Tap Upload .srt / .vtt and pick the file — the subtitles show on the video right away.
- Style and save
Pick a look or your own font, size and colors, fix any line, then tap Burn in & get link.
SRT and VTT files
Pick a SubRip (.srt) or WebVTT (.vtt) file up to 4 MB. UTF-8 works best; BasePic also tries older Windows encodings, such as Windows-1252 and Windows-1251. Italic and bold tags, colors and positions are left out — the words and the times stay.
The times stay with the video
Each line keeps its time from the file. If you trim the video or change its speed, the subtitles move with it, and lines outside the part you keep are left out. Lines that start after the end of the video are left out too.
A look for your subtitles
Pick Classic, TikTok, Netflix or Karaoke, or set the font, size, colors, outline, a box or a shadow, and the place — top, middle, bottom or a corner, or drag the words on the video. The preview on the video changes as you go. Every line is in the list below it, so you can fix a word or delete a line before you save.
Burned in or as a track
Burned in makes the subtitles part of the picture, so they show everywhere the video plays — on Instagram, TikTok and WhatsApp too. As a track keeps them separate, so viewers can turn them on or off in VLC, QuickTime and on most phones. Your original video does not change.
Add SRT to video: questions
How do I add an SRT file to a video?
Upload the video, tap Upload .srt / .vtt and pick the file. Check the lines, pick a look and tap Burn in & get link.
How do I burn subtitles into a video permanently?
Keep Burned in under In the saved video. The new MP4 has the subtitles in the picture, so they show in every player and app. The original video does not change.
Can I use a VTT file?
Yes. WebVTT (.vtt) works the same way as SRT. After fixing the lines you can save them again with Download .srt or Download .vtt.
Why does each word not light up?
A subtitle file has a time for each line, not for each word. Highlight each word works with subtitles that BasePic makes from the speech with Generate subtitles.
Is it free?
Yes. No sign-up and no watermark. Burning in works on videos up to 15 minutes long.
