Fast subtitle switching

What are quick subtitle transitions?

QuickSubtitles is an online AI subtitle and transcription tool developed by Guangzhou Biggo Network Technology Co., Ltd.

It integrates audio and video to text conversion, subtitle reordering, translation, online proofreading, style editing, compression, and export into a single web-based process.

Main functions

• Convert the speech in audio and video to text.
• Automatically generate subtitles with a timeline.
• Rephrase the sentences and arrange the subtitles according to the context.
• Use AI to translate subtitles into other languages.
• It can recognize various languages such as Chinese, English, and Cantonese.
• Edit text, timeline, and subtitle styles online.
• Merge the subtitles into the video and export it as a finished file.
• Export in common subtitle and plain text formats.
• Manage files and projects through tags.
• Apply to integrate the API into your own product.

Converting audio and video to text

After the user uploads an audio or video file, the system recognizes the speech and generates editable text as well as a subtitle timeline.

• Suitable for organizing interviews, courses, meetings, and podcasts.
• Suitable for creating initial subtitles for videos without subtitles.
• Noisy environments, accents, and proper nouns can affect accuracy.
• Multiple people talking at the same time and background music increase the difficulty of recognition.
• It should be listened to in its entirety once before being used officially.

Supported languages

The official website states that it supports 100 languages, with an emphasis on optimization and adaptation for Asian languages.

“The support for 100 languages” does not mean that the same level of accuracy can be achieved for every language, accent, and recording condition.

Intelligent subtitle rearrangement

Intelligent reordering adjusts the punctuation based on the context, thereby reducing issues such as overly long individual subtitles, hanging conjunctions, and an unnatural reading rhythm.

1. First, complete the speech recognition and check the entire text.
2. Run subtitle rearrangement to generate new sentences.
3. Check the length of each subtitle and its duration.
4. Avoid splitting the complete meaning across two shots.
5. Correct the numbers, units, and the placement of punctuation.
6. Play the video to check whether the subtitles can be read in time.

Automatic reflow can reduce manual work, but manual adjustments are still required when dealing with lyrics, poetry, code, and special formatting.

AI subtitle translation

Fast subtitle translation combines the context to render the subtitles, while striving to maintain a sentence rhythm similar to that of the original video.

The translation score may also depend on the number of characters, the language, and the file; it is necessary to check the actual amount used in the task popup before submitting.

Subtitle editing and styling

• Modify the recognized text sentence by sentence in the browser.
• Adjust the start and end times of subtitles as well as their punctuation.
• Adjust the font, color, and visual effects of subtitles.
• Select the appropriate font for multilingual content.
• Preview the synchronization between subtitles and the video.
• Check the safety zone and mobile display before exporting.

Export format

The official website currently lists output formats such as MP4, SRT, ASS, LRC, TXT, VTT, and MD.
