Polyglot edit & export subtitles workspace with a prepared sample.

Polyglot 1.11 · Prepared sample project

01

Bring the text into focus

Find a subtitle track in Files and choose Edit, or open its project and select a language. Search the vertical timeline and click subtitle text to edit it directly. Media stays visible when attached; subtitle-only projects work without it. Drag a cue’s grip or edges, or enter exact Start and End times, to adjust that language independently.

02

Review translations deliberately

Keep the original visible while switching between translations. Use the downloaded model to regenerate one original line from its audio or re-translate one line, then review the replacement before applying it. Source edits preserve completed translations and mark affected lines for review.

03

Make a clean handoff

Use Add language to create another track and Export subtitles to save your work. Export a selected track or all completed tracks as SRT, WebVTT or TXT. Files supports exports across projects. Bilingual output pairs the original with one completed translation, using that translation’s timing.

Before you begin.

Can I change subtitle timestamps?

Yes. Move or resize a cue in the timeline, or enter its Start and End times. Each language has independent timing. For a constant delay across the project, apply a fixed offset to every language; Reset timing removes those offsets. Automatic synchronization and drift correction are not included.

Can I edit without a video?

Yes. Imported SRT and VTT files work without media. Attach a matching video for playback review.

Will editing a source line overwrite my translations?

No. Affected translations are marked for review. You decide whether to keep or refresh them.

Keep creating.
