Format description
Abbreviation for SubRip Subtitles. SRT files contain subtitles which can be played together with videos. An SRT file stores information about when each subtitle text should get displayed and then removed, along with a sequential index. Subtitles in the SRT format cannot have formatting, unlike some other subtitle formats, such as SMI (SAMI).Note: SRT files themselves do not contain the video. They are only used in conjunction with a video.
