OpenShot is an open source video editing soft.
Adding subtitles and captions is quite tricky.
Adding subtitles takes effort. Suggestions by GeekOutdoors
- You can have the soundwave form displayed so you know where the talking and pausing occurs.
- You also use the green marker to help you decide how long the subtitle should be shown.
- Encode the subtitles in Notepad so you can easily copy and paste it later on
- Turn off the snapping tool which is on by default; to remove subtitle overlap
For captions, GeekOutdoors,
- used footer text, shortened the duration to like 3 seconds
- if you want advanced editing of the text, you will need to download and link Inkscape to OpenShot
