VTT to SRT FAQ
What's the difference between VTT and SRT?
The two formats are nearly identical, but many editors and tools only accept SRT. VTT also carries cue settings and inline tags that SRT doesn't use — this converter strips those so the output is clean, universally-compatible SRT.
What happens to the styling and positioning in my VTT file?
The VTT cue settings and inline tags are stripped, because SRT doesn't support them. The cue text and timestamps come through intact as standards-compliant SRT cues.
Can I convert SRT back to VTT?
Yes — use the SRT to VTT converter at /srt/vtt. It rewrites SRT cues into WebVTT with the header and millisecond timing web players expect.
Can I convert multiple VTT files at once?
Yes — drop up to several .vtt files and get one ZIP back. 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.
