- Hey, what's up everyone?
My name is Tim.
In this video, I'm gonna explain
how you can add subtitles to your videos in DaVinci Resolve
and after that, how you can easily create
automatic subtitles and SRT files with VEED.
All right, so we started a new DaVinci Resolve project,
and I just uploaded my video.
And I'm gonna show you how you can add subtitles.
So to add subtitles, make sure you head over to Effects.
And in the search bar, we're gonna find Subtitle,
and as you can see, the Subtitle option appeared.
And now, we're gonna click and drag this onto the timeline.
And as you can see, a new subtitle layer appeared.
To edit the subtitle,
we're gonna click on the subtitle
and as you can see on the right side,
you can see the Subtitle menu there.
You can change the words.
So let's say I'm saying, "Hey everyone."
There you go.
And in the timeline,
you can click and drag on one of the sides
to extend or shorten the subtitle,
and you can click and drag it from the middle to retime it.
And heading back to the Subtitles menu,
you can change the style as well.
You can change the font to whatever you like.
You can change the color.
Let's say green, for instance.
Let's click on OK.
You can change the sizing, the line spacing,
whatever you like.
Now, if you wanna add a new subtitle,
you can use the playheads where you wanna let it start
and click on Add New
or just simply copy this one and paste it to whatever place.
And again, if you wanna change the words of the subtitle,
just simply select the subtitle itself
and just type in whatever you say in that video.
However, adding subtitles manually
can be very time-consuming,
but fortunately, I have a tool for you:
how you can create automatic subtitles,
and create SRT files,
and upload the SRT file into DaVinci Resolve.
All right, we're gonna use VEED
to create automatic subtitles,
and it's very easy.
You don't need to download anything.
Simply head over to your browser
and type in the URL box veed.new.
I click on Enter.
You can also click on the first link in the description.
And now, we automatically started a new project
and we can instantly get started.
We're gonna select Upload a File to upload our video,
select a video you wanna add automatic captions to,
and click on Open.
And after a moment, the video's imported into VEED's editor.
I just wanted to say a quick hi.
And we can add automatic captions.
So to make this happen,
head over to Subtitles in the left menu.
And then to auto transcribe,
select Auto Subtitle,
select the language you speak in your video,
in this case, it's English,
and then click on Create Subtitles.
And now you can just sit back and relax until it's finished.
And there you have it.
So as you can see the Auto Transcription tool
transcribed the audio to text,
and you can see all transcriptions on the left
and the subtitles are added to the video.
You can easily edit the texts
by simply selecting the words or sentences
and change whatever you wanna change.
And if you hover over the subtitles,
as you can see on the right,
you can see the timeline cursor
and you can change the duration or the time length.
And on the right, you can see the trash can,
so you can delete the subtitles from there as well.
And you can click on one of the subtitles
and click and drag on one of the sides
to extend or shorten the timing.
You can also click and drag it from the middle to retime it,
but it's not necessary because the Auto Transcription tool
already made everything in sync.
And just so you know, you can also add new subtitles
and split subtitles.
For instance, use the playhead in the bottom timeline,
let it rest somewhere, and click on Add Subtitle,
or just let it rest somewhere
and click on Split Subtitle to split the subtitles in two.
All right, before I show you how you can burn the subtitles
into the video and export it like that,
I'm showing you how you can download
the subtitle separately as an SRT file
and upload it into DaVinci Resolve.
So to download the subtitles,
head over to Options in the Subtitles menu,
and on the Download Subtitles, select SRT Format,
and then click on the Download button.
And now we're gonna upload our SRT file
into DaVinci Resolve,
and we're gonna use the same video
so everything should be aligned.
So to upload your SRT file, head over to File in the menu,
head over to Import, and click on Subtitle.
And then if you open Media Pool,
you can see the subtitles in there.
Just simply click and drag the subtitles onto the timeline.
And as you can see...
Hey, everyone. My name is Tim.
I just wanna...
The subtitles are added to the video.
However, within VEED, you can also customize the subtitles
and burn them into the video.
So to customize the subtitles with VEED,
head over to Styles in the Subtitles menu,
and you can easily change the font, the size,
the color, background color, background style,
spacing, and much more.
And then if you're satisfied
and you wanna export your video,
head over to the Export button in the right-top corner,
choose your preferred render settings,
in this case, HD.
Make sure Burn Subtitles is enabled
and click on Export video.
And after the video with subtitles is rendered,
you can watch the video back on the left.
Hey, everyone. My name is Tim.
I just wanted to...
And as you can see, the subtitles are added to the video.
If you wanna share your video,
click on the big blue Share button
and you can copy the link and paste it everywhere.
You can upload the link of your video
directly onto your socials
or embed the video onto your website.
Or if you wanna download your video to your device,
head over to the Download button,
select Download MP4 or Download GIF,
and it should be in your Downloads folder.
All right, so that's it for this video.
I hope it was helpful.
Have a nice day, and good luck.
