Convert VTT to SRT subtitles online to make captions compatible with media players, editors, and platforms that reject WebVTT. ConverterUp's VTT to SRT converter parses cue numbers, timestamps, and styling, then rewrites them in the SRT format used by tools like VLC, Premiere Pro, and most TV media players. It is helpful for video editors importing browser-recorded captions and for translators delivering subtitle files to clients. Conversion runs locally in your browser, so dialogue from unreleased videos never gets uploaded.
Frequently asked questions
What are the main differences between VTT and SRT?
VTT uses a dot before milliseconds (00:00:01.500) while SRT uses a comma (00:00:01,500). VTT also supports inline styling and a WEBVTT header which SRT does not, so styling is stripped during conversion.
Will my cue styling and positioning be preserved?
Plain text is kept intact, but VTT-specific cues such as line position, alignment, and CSS classes are removed because SRT does not support them. The result is clean, universally compatible subtitles.
Can I convert multiple files at once?
Yes. Drop several .vtt files together and the tool will produce a ZIP archive containing each converted .srt with the same base name.
Is there a file size limit?
Up to 10 MB per VTT file, which is enough for a 4-hour film with hundreds of cues. Most subtitle files are well under 1 MB.
