SRT to TXT converter
Convert SRT to TXT: remove the cue numbers and timestamps from a subtitle file and keep just the words, one caption per line.
The conversion runs in your browser. Your file is not uploaded.
What the SRT to TXT converter does
The SRT to TXT converter strips the numbering and time ranges out of an SRT subtitle file and leaves plain text. Captions that were split across two lines are joined, and each caption becomes one line of the transcript. It also reads VTT, ASS and SBV files, and the conversion runs entirely in your browser.
What SRT to TXT conversion gives you
Each caption becomes one line of text; captions that were split over two lines are joined. Cue numbers and --> timestamps are removed. The result is easy to paste into a document, a blog post or a description box.
Need timestamps in the transcript? Generate captions from your video with the subtitle generator and export “Transcript with timestamps”.
Ways to use SRT converted to text
- Paste it into a document to edit an interview into an article.
- Add it to a video description or a web page so the content is searchable.
- Feed it to a translation or summarising tool.
- Proofread the wording before correcting the subtitle file itself.
