Upload a Croatian video or audio file, or paste a link, and download timed subtitles in Latin script: SRT for YouTube and video editors, VTT for web players.
How it works
Drop a file, or paste a public link from YouTube, Google Drive or a podcast feed. Files over 500 MB continue on the upload page, up to 10 hours or 5 GB.
Read the first Croatian cues against the audio. Correct a line on the transcript and the subtitle file carries the correction.
SRT for YouTube Studio and video editors, VTT for web players. TXT, DOCX and JSON come from the same transcript.
What to expect with Croatian
For a transcript rather than subtitles, see transcribe Croatian, Croatian audio to text and Croatian YouTube video to text. For subtitles from any YouTube link, YouTube to SRT; for any file, the SRT generator.
Captioning Croatian
Croatian is written in the Latin alphabet with č, ć, đ, š and ž, and each is a separate letter, not a decoration. Older tools that saved files in Windows-1250 or that strip accents turn đ into dj and drop the rest, which a Croatian viewer reads as careless. Keep the downloaded file in UTF-8 when you edit it.
Croatian and its neighbours share most of their grammar but differ in everyday words (tisuća and hiljada, kruh and hleb) and in the ije/je spelling of the old jat vowel. If you subtitle for a Croatian audience, read the cues for words a speaker from elsewhere in the region may have used.

Each cue is a phrase from the transcript with its start and end time. Most run a few seconds. A passage spoken without a pause can come out as one long cue of up to about half a minute, so split those in your editor if your platform wants two short lines at a time.
Cue times are taken from the recording itself, so the file lines up with the video or audio you uploaded. If you trim the start of the video afterwards, shift the cues by the same amount in your editor.
Open the transcript, correct a misheard name or number on its line, and the SRT and VTT you download carry the correction with the timing unchanged.
You get the subtitle file. Fonts, colours, position and captions drawn into the picture are done in your video editor or player, which reads this file.
Up to 10 hours or 5 GB per recording. The box on this page takes files up to 500 MB; larger ones continue on the upload page. 99+ languages, detected automatically.
Speakers are identified and named in the summary, key quotes and chapters. The cues in the subtitle file carry the words and their timing only.
