Question 1

Will extracting subtitles upload my video?

Accepted Answer

No. Extraction happens entirely in your browser. The video never leaves your device.

Question 2

Why does it say no subtitles were found?

Accepted Answer

This tool only extracts 'embedded soft subtitle tracks'—subtitles packaged as separate streams within the video file (common in MKV, some MP4). If subtitles are burned directly into the video pixels (hardcoded), there is no track to extract, and OCR (not supported here) would be needed.

Question 3

What format are the extracted subtitles?

Accepted Answer

They are converted to the universal SRT subtitle format, which can be loaded in any player or edited with a text editor. If the video contains multiple subtitle tracks (e.g., different languages), all will be listed for you to download individually.

Question 4

Which videos are supported?

Accepted Answer

Supports common containers with subtitle tracks, especially MKV. MP4/MOV files with mov_text subtitles can also be processed. The tool automatically detects subtitle tracks in the video before extraction.
