Nowadays we have access to movies, series and documentaries from all over the world, and with subtitles, language is no longer a barrier. For this reason, having tools that allow us to manage or improve subtitle files is of great help. That is why we will present services to merge subtitles in the most popular formats (SRT, SUB, XML, plain text, etc.). All you have to do with the platforms for joining subtitles is add the input file and combine it or join it with other subtitle files to create a single file. Many of the following tools that we will list allow you to edit the subtitle files before merging, create subtitle files in batch, or combine subtitle files in batch.
Jubler Subtitle Editor
We will start with Jubler Subtitle Editor, the simplest option to combine multiple subtitle files and create a single one. The utility supports files in SRT, SUB, SSA, TXT, XML, etc. When you add subtitle files, each one will open in a separate tab, and from the Join Files function you can merge the files. The platform also offers you all the editing tools for subtitles that you can use before performing the merge.
Subtitle Workshop
Subtitle Workshop is a powerful platform for creating subtitles, dividing subtitles, and editing subtitles, among other options. Its merge function is very good and powerful, because it allows you to unite two or more files in a few steps. The input files can be in formats: SRT, SUB, SRF, plain text file, OVR, MPL, SCR, PJS, XML, SSA, SBV, etc. The output format will be done in SubRip (SUB) and SRT.
Subtitle Edit
Subtitle Edit is one of the most powerful open-source subtitle editing programs. Its subtitle merge feature allows you to compare between two subtitle files and perform translations, split them, add texts, etc. The platform supports files in formats: ASS, SUB, SRT, RTF, CAP, LRC, STP, XML, JSON and HTML, among others. The environment allows you to visualize the created subtitle along with the video.
Subtitle Merger
We will end with Subtitle Merger, a simple platform to attach small video clips and files of subtitles to combine them in sequences and be able to perform editing tasks easily and quickly, such as translations.
All the programs mentioned are free and have no restrictions. Each platform has its distinctive feature, but if we had to choose one tool, it would be “Jubler Subtitle Editor”.
