Supported Formats

SubRip — the most common subtitle format. Numbered cues with comma-separated timestamps.

WebVTT — the web standard. Similar to SRT but uses periods in timestamps and supports styling.

YouTube timed text — the XML format YouTube uses internally for captions. Contains precise word-level timing.

Plain text — no timestamps. Displayed as a simple line-by-line transcript.

What subtitle formats can I view?

SRT, VTT (WebVTT), SRV (YouTube timed text XML), and plain text files. The viewer auto-detects the format from the file content.

Is my file uploaded to a server?

No. All parsing and rendering happens in your browser. Your subtitle files never leave your device.

Can I search within the captions?

Yes. Use the search box above the viewer to filter captions by keyword. Matching text is highlighted.

Can I view captions directly from a YouTube video?

Yes. Add ?v=VIDEO_ID to the URL or use the subtitle downloader to fetch tracks first, then click Preview.

Free, instant, no sign-up. Get captions in SRT, VTT, or plain text from any YouTube video.

Search stored YouTube captions by word or phrase, then jump straight into the downloader for the matching video.
