WebVTT to SRT Converter

Convert WebVTT cues to numbered SRT captions locally with explicit handling of cue settings and malformed timestamps.

Or paste subtitle textUseful for quick edits without creating a temporary SRT/VTT file first.
Why this tool is different

Convert WebVTT cues to numbered SRT captions locally with explicit handling of cue settings and malformed timestamps. Controls expose the decisions that materially affect the result instead of hiding them behind a one-click preset.

Requirements and recommendations

How to use VTT to SRT

  • Paste or open a VTT file.
  • Parse cues and convert timing dots to SRT comma milliseconds.
  • Review warnings where WebVTT settings cannot be represented in basic SRT.
How OpenFileTools processes it

Local processing, explicit choices.

Subtitle text is parsed and rewritten locally in the page. No subtitle text is sent to OpenFileTools, and external links inside captions are treated as inert text.

Frequently asked

Questions, answered.

Is my media uploaded?

No. Source bytes remain on this device and are read directly by the browser. OpenFileTools does not receive the file.

Why can a recognized file still fail?

A container and the codecs inside it are separate. Browser decoder and encoder support varies by operating system and browser, so the tool checks the actual track rather than promising universal conversion.

Does processing change my original?

No. A separate result is created for preview or download; the selected source file is not modified.
