kSubs Creator

kSubs Creator is a comprehensive application that aims to assist you in creating subtitles for your videos and movies. Unlike other similar tools in its category, it doesn’t have the user deal with complicated options, adopting a straightforward approach that makes it very easy to use.

On the same note, its interface is defined by simplicity, providing you with the possibility to watch the video you want to process while editing its subtitle or writing each line of a new SRT file.

The most important thing about a subtitle file is its accuracy and the synchronization with the video frame. kSubs Creator can help you achieve this goal, provided you have the patience needed for editing each line of the subtitle and entering its corresponding playback timing range. Nevertheless, the simple navigation options can help you in this matter, since they can be used for jumping back and forth throughout the video file and have the subtitle time sync with your selection.

The built-in player can be used for watching the loaded video while writing the subtitle text. On the downside, kSubs Creator does not include an actual text editor to help you customize the text style, the font and its size. No spell checking tools are available, so you better be careful about your typing.

kSubs Creator only provides support for SRT subtitle files and AVI video files, which is quite disappointing, considering there are other tools out there that offer so much more.

However, it does provide some useful options that are designed to ease your work. For instance, users can open a ‘help text’, which is a reference document that allows you to grab text without leaving the working environment. Moreover, the ‘Entry Check’ option is designed to notify you about overlapping time values.

kSubs Creator is created with simplicity in mind, but it lacks some important features that advanced users might find absolutely necessary for creating and syncing subtitles. Extending the supported format range and including error and spell checking capabilities could definitely add to its value.
