Many Shorts are watched with sound off. Burned-in or uploaded captions keep the story moving — and help SEO and accessibility.
What an SRT file is
SRT is a simple subtitle format: numbered cues with start/end times and text. Editors and YouTube accept it widely.
Generate captions with your voiceover
In Studio, turn on SRT captions before generating. You download audio and a caption file in one step — no separate transcription round-trip.
- Keep lines short for mobile screens
- Review names and numbers once in your editor
- Upload SRT in YouTube Studio or burn in with CapCut
Put this into practice in Shorts Voice Studio.
