Convert WebVTT subtitles to SRT
Drop your .vtt file and get an .srt that video editors, players and upload forms actually accept.
Your file never leaves this tab: the conversion happens in your browser, and nothing is sent to us.

There's nothing to convert yet.
WebVTT is what browsers speak. Nearly everything else — Premiere, DaVinci, VLC, the subtitle upload box on most platforms — expects an SRT, and hands you a vague error when you feed it a VTT. Going backwards is not just swapping dots for commas: a VTT can carry things that have nowhere to go in an SRT.
Positioning settings after the timestamp, NOTE and STYLE blocks, cue names, voice tags. Drop them in as-is and you get subtitles that read «line:90% align:start» on screen. Here each one is dealt with on its own terms — the voice tags, for instance, become «Marta:» in front of the line, which is what an SRT can actually show.
What we handle that others don't
- NOTE, STYLE and REGION blocks removed. They're not subtitles and they must not end up inside the text.
- Positioning settings (line, align, position) dropped: an SRT has nowhere to put them.
- Voice tags <v Marta> turned into «Marta:», so you don't lose who's speaking.
- Timestamps without hours (01:23.400) — legal in VTT, illegal in SRT — expanded properly.
