F.A.Q.
Hardcoded subtitles, or burned-in subtitles, are permanently embedded in the video. Unlike soft subtitles, which can be toggled on or off, hardcoded subtitles remain visible throughout playback. This is ideal for platforms without subtitle support or for viewers who prefer constant captions. Simply upload your video, add your subtitles, select Export, then the hardcoding option during export, and download the final file with embedded subtitles. Yes, Matesub lets you easily burn subtitles into the video, converting soft subtitles to a hardcoded format. You can upload existing subtitle files (.srt, .vtt) or use Matesub’s automatic subtitle generation to create subtitles from your video. Hardcoded subtitles are permanently displayed, while soft subtitles can be turned on or off by the viewer.
