Installation

Set up the application

01

Download the installer

Save AutoSubtitlesProSetup.exe to a known location on your PC.

Unless you need a custom location, keep the default installation path to simplify updates and troubleshooting.

04

Complete installation

Launch Auto Subtitles Pro from the Start menu or the shortcut created by the installer.

First run

Quick start

Start with a short sample clip. It is the fastest way to validate recognition quality, subtitle formatting and export settings before processing a long video.

01

Add your video

Select the source video that needs subtitles.

02

Run transcription

The application extracts speech and prepares text for subtitle segmentation.

03

Review the transcript

Check names, numbers, technical terms and any sections affected by noise or unclear speech.

04

Choose the output

Export SRT/ASS or prepare a final video with burned-in captions, depending on your delivery workflow.

Workflow

Subtitle production pipeline

Automation removes repetitive work, while the final transcript and timing review should still remain a human quality-control step.

How the workflow changes

Manual workflow
  • listen through the video and type the transcript
  • split phrases and set timing manually
  • build subtitle files by hand
  • prepare burned-in captions as a separate process
With Auto Subtitles Pro
  • automatic speech transcription
  • a prepared text and timing baseline
  • SRT/ASS export
  • optional delivery with captions burned into the video
Important

Recognition quality depends on the recording. Background noise, music, overlapping speakers, unusual names and technical terminology may still require manual correction.
