VLC Dual Subtitles

Hey there language learners, are you struggling to find multilingual subtitles for your favorite TV shows or movies? Well, have no fear, because with a little help from Notepad, you can create your own multilingual SRT subtitle files!

First of all, let’s get familiar with what SRT files are. SRT stands for SubRip Subtitle files, which are a type of text file that contains captions and timing information for subtitles. These files are commonly used in the media industry to provide subtitles for movies, TV shows, and other video content.

Now, let’s get started with combining SRT files. For this example, we’ll be using two SRT files: one in English and one in Japanese.

English SRT File:
