Hello!
I am a new Capcut user and I'm struggling to properly export a video project. Concretely, the video is being exported without any of the subtitles I've added to it. Could you kindly assist? Thanks a lot!
Hi,
It looks like you are having trouble exporting your CapCut video with subtitles. Here's how to make sure your subtitles are included when exporting:
- Ensure Subtitles Are Enabled: Before exporting, confirm that the subtitle track is visible and enabled in your project timeline. If the subtitle layer is hidden or disabled, it won't appear in the exported video.
- Exporting SRT Files: If you need the subtitles as a separate file (e.g., SRT), note that this feature may require a CapCut Pro subscription. Ensure you're subscribed to access this functionality.
- Ensure you have sufficient storage space at the location you are trying to export the video file
- Do the basic troubleshooting: Update capcut, reinstall the application, clear cache and restart the device
How to workaround?
Ensure Subtitles are "Hardcoded" or "Burned In"
To ensure subtitles are visible to everyone regardless of platform or player settings, you need to "hardcode" or "burn in" the subtitles into the video itself during the export process. This means the subtitles become a permanent part of the video frames, rather than existing as a separate subtitle track.
Steps to Export with Hardcoded Subtitles in CapCut
* Finalize your video project: Make sure you have finished adding and editing all your subtitles in your CapCut project.
* Export settings: When you are ready to export, tap the "Export" button in the top right corner of the CapCut interface. This will typically be an arrow pointing upwards.
* "Captions" or "Subtitles" option: In the export settings, look for a checkbox or toggle labeled "Captions" or "Subtitles". This option might be found under "Advanced settings" or similar. Ensure this option is checked or toggled ON. This step is crucial as it tells CapCut to include the subtitles in the exported video.
* Export video: Choose your desired video resolution, frame rate, and format, and then proceed with the export.
By following these steps and making sure the "Captions" option is enabled during export, your video should be exported with the subtitles visible directly on the video.
Using Other Tools: If you are still having subtitle export issue then, consider using third party tools like Microsoft Clipchamp or YouTube's auto-captioning feature to generate and download subtitles.
