How it works
How do you make Spanish subtitles for a video?
Drop the Spanish video on the generator. Its sound is transcribed in Spanish, piece by piece, and laid out as subtitles of one or two lines that follow the speaker. Read them in the preview, then download the SRT or VTT file.

Why choose a generator set to Spanish?
So no subtitle lands in the wrong language. Left to guess, a short or noisy stretch of Spanish can be taken for another language, and that block of subtitles would make no sense to viewers. Set to Spanish, every subtitle is Spanish.
For a video where people switch between Spanish and English, use the main subtitle generator, which decides the language of each short stretch by itself.
How are Spanish subtitles split into lines?
Each subtitle holds at most 2 lines of 42 characters. Lines break after a comma or between phrases, keep ¿ and ¡ with the word that follows, and avoid ending on short words such as “de”, “la” or “que”.
- With an opening ¿
- Its two linesya que en la tierra no se / percibe su movimiento, ¿cierto?
- With ñ
- Its two linesA word such as “compañeros” or “año” keeps its ñ
- With a decimal
- Its two linesWritten with a comma, as in “6,5”
| Subtitle | Its two lines |
|---|---|
| With an opening ¿ | ya que en la tierra no se / percibe su movimiento, ¿cierto? |
| With ñ | A word such as “compañeros” or “año” keeps its ñ |
| With a decimal | Written with a comma, as in “6,5” |
Does it work for Spanish from Spain and Latin America?
Yes. The setting is the Spanish language, not a country, so speech from Madrid, Mexico City or Buenos Aires is all written in standard Spanish spelling. Our test video was Latin American Spanish. Local words and names are written as they sound.
Where do Spanish subtitles go once they’re made?
Wherever the video is published. On YouTube or Vimeo, upload the SRT as the video’s Spanish subtitles; in a video editor, import it as a caption track; on your own site, add the VTT file to the player.
YouTube and Vimeo
Choose Spanish as the subtitle language, so viewers find them under that name.
Social video
Burn the subtitles into the picture in your editor, since many feeds play videos muted.
Your own site
Add the VTT file to the player as a Spanish subtitle track.
Want Spanish subtitles with speaker names on your Mac?
NoteOwl understands Spanish on your Mac: it transcribes Spanish recordings there with unlimited transcription, labels each speaker and saves SRT subtitles with their names. Need a Spanish transcript rather than subtitles? Use Spanish audio to text.
FAQ
Questions about Spanish subtitles
Is the Spanish subtitle generator free?
Yes. Make Spanish subtitles for 3 videos a day, up to 30 minutes of each, with no account and no watermark. SRT, VTT and text are all included.
Can it make Spanish subtitles for an English video?
No. It writes down the Spanish that is spoken, and doesn’t translate. For an English video, make English subtitles with the main subtitle generator, then turn them into Spanish with the subtitle translator, which keeps their numbers and times.
How accurate are the Spanish subtitles?
Clear speech comes back nearly word for word, with accents and the opening question mark in place. Names and specialist words are the likeliest slips, so read the preview through before you publish.
Is my video uploaded?
No. Your browser opens the video on your device and takes out its sound. Short pieces of it go over a secure connection to a cloud AI transcription service, which transcribes each one and discards it. NoteOwl stores neither the video nor the subtitles.
What if the video mixes Spanish and English?
Use the main subtitle generator instead: it detects the language of each short stretch, so English parts are subtitled in English. This page writes every part as Spanish.
Can I fix a word in the Spanish subtitles?
Yes. Open the SRT or VTT file in any text editor, correct the word and save it as UTF-8 text, so accents and ñ stay intact. Leave the numbers and times as they are.
