    How to make SRT subtitles from MOV

    MOV is Apple's QuickTime video format: iPhone videos, Mac screen recordings and Final Cut exports are MOV files. Upload a .mov file and Scriptivox turns the speech in it into timed SRT subtitles, the format YouTube, Vimeo, VLC, Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve all accept.

    1. Upload your MOV file

      On an iPhone, share the video to Files or AirDrop it to your Mac. Mac screen recordings are saved to the Desktop unless you changed it. Then choose the .mov file in the upload box.

    2. Choose the language

      Leave it on auto-detect or pick one of more than 100 languages. Turn on speaker recognition when more than one person talks.

    3. Check the timing and download SRT

      Read every line in the editor, fix any word, then download the .srt file, ready for YouTube, your video editor or your player.
