Convert WebVTT subtitles to SRT format instantly — free, browser-only, timing preserved exactly.

About VTT to SRT Converter

WebVTT (VTT) is the standard for HTML5 video and streaming platforms like YouTube and Vimeo; SRT (SubRip Text) is the universal format accepted by desktop video players, most video editors, and subtitle databases. The AT USE VTT to SRT Converter strips the WEBVTT header, rewrites dot-separated VTT timestamps to comma-separated SRT timestamps, adds cue sequence numbers, and preserves all text content exactly. Everything runs locally in your browser — your subtitle files never leave your device.

Common use cases

  • Download VTT captions from YouTube or Vimeo and convert to SRT for video editing.
  • Import WebVTT subtitles into a desktop video player or editor that requires SRT.
  • Archive streaming captions in SRT format for long-term compatibility.

How to use it

  1. Drop your VTT file into the converter or paste the subtitle text.
  2. Confirm the source format is set to VTT (pre-selected automatically).
  3. Click "Convert" and check the preview.
  4. Click "Download" to save the converted SRT file.

Frequently asked questions

Is this tool free?

Yes. Completely free, no login, no watermark, no signup. Everything runs in your browser.

What is the difference between VTT and SRT?

WebVTT uses dot-separated timestamps (00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:04.500) and a WEBVTT header; SRT uses comma-separated timestamps (00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:04,500) and is the most widely supported format for desktop players and video editors.

Will timing be preserved exactly?

Yes. The converter rewrites only the timestamp separator (dot → comma), adds sequence numbers, and removes the VTT header. No timing data is altered or rounded.

Does my subtitle file upload to a server?

No. Conversion runs entirely in your browser — your file never leaves your device.
