About this tool

VTT To SRT Converter

Convert WebVTT captions back to SubRip: strip cue settings, regions and styling tags, renumber cues and fix timing drift.

The VTT to SRT Converter rewrites a W3C WebVTT caption file as a SubRip (.srt) file that video editors, DVD authoring tools and desktop players accept. It removes the WEBVTT header and any NOTE, STYLE or REGION blocks, changes the millisecond separator from a full stop to a comma, decodes escaped entities such as &amp; and &lt;, unwraps WebVTT-only markup like <c> class spans and karaoke timestamp tags, and renumbers every cue from 1. It runs entirely in your browser.

Why use VTT To SRT Converter

• Handles the whole spec

  NOTE, STYLE and REGION blocks, cue identifiers and cue settings are all recognised and removed cleanly.

• Readable speaker names

  Voice spans become plain-text speaker prefixes instead of vanishing with the tag.

• Private by design

  Conversion runs in JavaScript on your device; the caption file is never sent anywhere.

Common use cases

• Import captions downloaded from a streaming platform into Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve or Final Cut, which read SubRip more reliably than WebVTT.
• Convert auto-generated WebVTT captions to SRT before uploading them to a platform whose caption uploader only accepts .srt.
• Flatten <v Speaker> voice spans into plain "Speaker:" prefixes so a transcript reads correctly outside a WebVTT renderer.
• Correct a fixed sync offset while converting, instead of re-timing every cue by hand.
