YouTube Subtitle Translator — Read, Translate and Export
Sometimes you want the words rather than a voice — to read along, to study a language, or to keep a transcript. This page covers the subtitle side: translated captions on screen, a full transcript you can click through, and an SRT file you can take away.
Translated subtitles as you watch
Captions are translated segment by segment while the video plays. You can show the translation on its own or keep the original underneath for comparison.
Full transcript with timecodes
Video to Text gives you every line of the video with its timestamp. Click any line and the video jumps there, which makes long lectures and interviews far easier to navigate.
Export as SRT
Download the translated subtitles as a standard SRT file and use them in VLC, a video editor, or upload them back to YouTube.
Subtitle history
A draggable panel keeps every line that has gone past, so you can scroll back to something you missed without rewinding the video.
