VTT to SRT

VTT to SRT Converter — Convert WebVTT Subtitles to SubRip Online

The VTT to SRT Converter is a free online tool that turns WebVTT (.vtt) subtitle files into the classic SubRip (.srt) format, which is universally supported by video players, editing software, broadcast platforms, and translation services. While VTT is the modern web standard, SRT remains the lingua franca for video distribution — VLC, Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut, Aegisub, Subtitle Edit, Netflix delivery specs, and most translation agencies still expect SRT as their primary input format.

When You Need This Conversion

If you downloaded subtitles from a web video player (which often uses VTT), exported captions from Zoom or Microsoft Teams, or received a VTT from a colleague but need to import them into editing software, conversion is required. Many translation marketplaces only accept SRT. Broadcast workflows and DVD authoring tools likewise expect SRT. The conversion strips out VTT-specific formatting and metadata while preserving cue numbers, timestamps, and subtitle text.

How the Conversion Works

The tool reads your VTT file, removes the "WEBVTT" header and any STYLE or NOTE blocks, converts VTT timestamps (00:00:00.000 with a period) to SRT timestamps (00:00:00,000 with a comma), renumbers cues if needed, and strips out positioning or voice tags that SRT doesn't support. Upload your .vtt file, click Convert, and download the .srt result instantly. Subtitle text and timing are preserved exactly.

Why Use Our Converter?

Free, instant, in-browser (your subtitle files never touch a server), and mobile-friendly. Use it for video editing, translation outsourcing, broadcast delivery, or to back up subtitles into the more portable SRT format.
