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.

Is converting to SRT safe with MConverter?
For cloud-based conversions, MConverter encrypts your files using the latest technologies, such as TLS 1.3 and HSTS. They are transmitted securely to our cloud service provider’s EU-based data center, which holds internationally recognized ISO 27001 and SOC 2 certifications. There, each conversion is processed in a separate, isolated environment. This technique further reduces the risk of a malicious file impacting other conversions.
Four hours after the conversion is complete, your files are automatically deleted from MConverter’s systems. You can also permanently delete your files immediately after finishing the conversion with the trash icon.
When converting on-device, your files never leave your device. MConverter processes them locally. Note: on-device conversions are not yet available for some hardware-intensive formats.
For both cloud and on-device conversions, your files are never scanned or shared with third parties for marketing purposes.
