Two formats, one comma apart
SRT and WebVTT carry identical content but disagree on details players are strict about: SRT numbers its cues and
writes 00:01:02,500; VTT demands a WEBVTT header and 00:01:02.500. Upload an
SRT where a web player wants VTT and captions silently fail. The conversion here fixes punctuation, renumbers cues,
strips styling tags, and tolerates the BOMs and missing hour fields real files have.
Transcript mode is the sleeper feature: timestamps gone, rolling-caption duplicates merged — the readable text of a talk, ready to quote or hand to a translation tool. Subtitle files never upload; everything is parsed in your tab.
