Subtitle Creator

It can often be useful to embed captions directly into a video file, to avoid having to find the right subtitle file every time you want to watch a certain movie.

Subtitle Creator is a straightforward utility that can help you encode various types of videos to other formats, while inserting subtitles from SRT files.

The application supports numerous input formats, including AVI, MPG, WMV, 3GP or VOB and can convert files to AVI, MPG, WMV and AVCHD. You can modify various encoder settings for each format, such as bitrate, resolution and audio sample rate.

It is possible to load a large number of video files and apply captions to all of them in one operation. However, you cannot assign different subtitles to each clip. Also, Subtitle Creator does not support drag and drop functionality, which would have allowed you to import video files with less effort.

Once you have added the videos to be processed, as well as a subtitle file, you can preview the clips, to get an idea of what they would look like with the inserted captions.

It is possible to alter the vertical position of the captions, as well as choose the font type, size and weight. The program allows you to apply a shadow effect and various styles to the created subtitles.

Moreover, you can change the color of the embedded captions and apply transparency to the text, subtitle background and shadow.

Visually, Subtitle Creator is not very well designed. It features a colorful interface that could prove to be irritating for some and does not blend well with the standard Windows interface.

Also, it appears to be very outdated, as its various menus look very out of place on more modern operating systems.

Subtitle Creator is a simple application, meant to help you embed captions into various video files. However, it features an outdated and eye-catching interface that some users may find bothersome.
