Types of Subtitling We Support

To provide you with the most appropriate subtitling solutions, GTE Localize offers 4 types of subtitling services for different purposes.

Subtitle translation

Subtitle translation is powerful assistance to make your media content accessible to international audiences speaking different languages. What’s more, search engines can not read a video. Thus, having a video with translations for the title, description, and transcript gives you a higher chance of being clicked, boosting your company’s overall visibility in foreign markets.

Subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing (SDH)

SDH is the combination of Closed Captioning specifically made for deaf and hard-of-hearing people and Subtitling, which makes your media products accessible to foreign audiences. Thus, it integrates the benefits of both. SDH provides audiences with a rich viewing experience by rendering the dialogues, background noises, characters’ names, and sound effects from the original audio to a foreign language.

Video time coding services

Subtitles are timed to appear on the screen at specific points in time. These points of time are called time coding. The most common timecode format is hours:minutes: seconds, milliseconds -> hours:minutes: seconds, milliseconds. Creating a timecode template is extracting transcript or subtitles and their timings from various video formats into a text or a SubRip file.

Subtitle Encoding

Creating a timecode template is extracting transcript or subtitles and their timings from various video formats into a text or a SubRip file. Subtitle Encoding is the process of burning the subtitles you have created into a video and ensuring the subtitles match the movements of the video. Typically, a subtitle file format is .doc, .txt, .sub, .ass, .xml, .srt, etc, which is created separately from your video. Therefore, in order for the subtitles to be displayed on the video, subtitle encoding is needed.
