SRT file and WebVTT, explained

SRT to VTT FAQ
What's the difference between SRT and VTT?
They are nearly identical text formats. WebVTT adds a WEBVTT header at the top of the file and uses a dot instead of a comma in timestamps — small differences, but HTML5 <track> elements and many web players require the VTT version.
Will my line breaks and cue text be preserved?
Yes. CutConvert rewrites every cue with the header, timestamps, line breaks, and text all preserved, producing a standards-compliant WebVTT file with millisecond timing.
Can I convert VTT back to SRT?
Yes — use the VTT to SRT converter at /vtt/srt. It reads your WebVTT cues and rewrites them as universally-compatible SRT.
Can I convert several SRT files at once?
Yes — batch in, one ZIP out. Guests convert up to 3 files per batch at up to 1 MB each; a free account raises that to 5 files and 30 conversions a month, and paid plans support 20 MB files and larger batches.
