How to use the SRT Subtitle Formatter.
Subtitle formatting requires real timing information. Correct block numbering and timestamp syntax without inventing synchronization with audio you have not supplied.
Make the workflow fit your task.
Use the supplied cue times and text to create numbered subtitle blocks. Normalize timestamp punctuation and spacing, then inspect ordering and overlaps without inventing synchronization to audio that was not provided.
- What you provide
- Transcript with supplied timing.
- What you get

Decisions and troubleshooting.
Can SRT formatting create timing from an untimed paragraph?
It can format known timings, but accurate synchronization requires the recording or supplied time boundaries. Do not mistake estimated cues for verified alignment.
Why does the subtitle player reject a block?
Check numbering, the timestamp separator and the blank line between cues. Parse the file and inspect the reported block.
