Everything about adding M2V subtitles
Can Sonix add subtitles to M2V videos?
Yes! Upload your M2V video, and Sonix will transcribe it and let you add professional subtitles with customizable styling.
Can I burn subtitles into the video?
Yes! Sonix can permanently embed (burn-in) subtitles into your M2V video with your choice of fonts, colors, and positioning.
What subtitle styles are available?
Customize fonts, colors, background boxes, positioning (top, center, bottom), and more for your burned-in subtitles.
Can I download subtitle files separately?
Yes! Export subtitles as SRT, VTT, or other formats to use with YouTube, Vimeo, or your video editor.
Can I translate subtitles to other languages?
Absolutely! Sonix can translate your subtitles into 55+ languages for multilingual videos.
How do I split subtitles correctly?
Sonix offers auto-split options for max characters per line, lines per caption, and max duration. Fine-tune manually if needed.
Can I convert M2V files to text?
Usually not directly, because most M2V files are video-only and contain no audio track. Upload the matching audio file — often a WAV, AIFF, or M2A saved alongside the M2V — then transcribe, edit, and export the text.
Why doesn't my M2V file have any sound?
M2V is an MPEG-2 video elementary stream, so the audio is stored in a separate file until the two are multiplexed during DVD or broadcast authoring. Look for a companion audio file with the same name to find the sound.
How do I create subtitles for an M2V video?
Transcribe the separate audio track that accompanies the M2V: upload the audio, review the transcript in the editor, and export it as an SRT or VTT subtitle file to mux with the video.

I found out out you guys because I had to do some transcribing for me yearbook class and my friend recommended you guys. It was a very easy process and it took hours off the time I had to actually had to transcribe it. The timing made it very easy to go back in the recording, this is the best feature in Sonix.
The experience is fantastic, the system is easy to use, and transcription quality in different languages is unbeatable. Sonix is the best system I've tried so far...and I know one thing or two about languages/translation and voice recognition.
