How to use Desi Subtitles

Generate, refine, then export captions in the format your next step needs.

Generate your subtitles

  1. 1Upload your audio or video file.
  2. 2Pick the spoken language in the audio. For Hindi, choose Hinglish (Roman) or हिंदी (Devanagari).
  3. 3Generate subtitles, then review the cues, timing, style, and placement.

Choose your export

Open Captions after reviewing your subtitles, then choose the file that fits your editing workflow.

Export .SRT

A subtitle file with timing and text. Import it into an editor and style captions there.

Best for Premiere, Resolve, Final Cut, CapCut, and other editors.

Export transparent captions

A video layer containing only your styled captions on a transparent background.

Best when your editor supports alpha video overlays.

Export green-screen captions

A caption video on a solid green background that you can remove with chroma key.

Best for editors that do not support transparent video.

Export complete video

Your source video with the selected caption style permanently added.

Best when you are ready to post without more video editing.

Export questions

What is the difference between SRT and burned-in captions?

An SRT file keeps text and timing editable in your NLE. Burned-in (complete) video permanently adds the styled captions into an MP4 ready to post.

When should I export a transparent caption layer?

Use transparent WEBM when your editor supports alpha video overlays. Place the caption layer above your source footage without chroma key.

When should I use green-screen captions?

Export a green-screen MP4 when your editor does not handle transparent video cleanly. Remove the green with chroma key, then keep the styled captions.

Can I use Desi Subtitles with CapCut?

Yes. Generate Hinglish or Hindi subtitles, export an SRT or caption layer, then import into CapCut to finish style and position.
