Get SRT subtitles for a video

Vows and toasts are once-in-a-lifetime audio — deliverables should honor that.

The situationThe video needs subtitles — for accessibility, muted autoplay, or a client deliverable. The recording lives in Riverside.

The chain

Get the recording out of Riverside

After a session, download per-participant WAV/MP4 tracks from the recording page — that's the platform's whole point. Use the separate per-speaker tracks: diarization becomes near-perfect when each voice is its own file.

Transcribe the video (or its extracted audio)

Upload the file; word-level timestamps are captured automatically.

Export SRT

Download the .srt — timed from word-level timestamps, ready for YouTube, players and editors.

Check reading speed

Paste any dense caption into the speed checker to confirm it stays under ~17-20 characters/second.

What you end up with: A subtitle file that passes both the player and the reading-speed bar.

For wedding videographers: The film ships with subtitles for every relative.
