Supports .srt and .vtt
Drop in your English .srt or .vtt file. SubLingo parses every cue and locks the timings in place.
Set the target language to German. The source is auto-detected, so you can leave it on English or let it detect.
Run the translation. Only the text inside each cue is rewritten in German — never the timecodes.
Download the German subtitle file in the same format you uploaded, ready to drop straight onto your video.
Translating from English into German: German uses the umlauts ä, ö, ü and the ß ligature, plus longer compound words, so lines can run a little longer than the source and the file stays UTF-8. Because only the text inside each cue changes, every timecode from the original English file carries over unchanged.

Most English subtitle files translate to German in a few seconds. Longer files with thousands of cues take a little more, but you stay on the page the whole time.
Typical movie and episode subtitle files — a few hundred KB and a few thousand cues — translate without trouble. Very large files may take longer to process, but the timecodes still come back unchanged.
