Everything about adding WMV subtitles
Can Sonix add subtitles to WMV videos?
Yes! Upload your WMV 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 WMV 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.
Why won't my WMV file play on my Mac?
macOS does not include Microsoft's WMV codecs, so QuickTime cannot open the file natively. You can play it with a third-party app such as VLC, or convert it to MP4 for broader compatibility.
Can I get subtitles from a WMV video?
Yes. After uploading and transcribing the WMV file, you can export the transcript as an SRT or VTT caption file with timestamps aligned to the video.

Of all the programs that do this, I found you the best!
The UI is da bomb with so many great features including the one where I can highlight a passage and download as a clip. So very useful! It’s editing and transcription combined!!
