Format Details
VTT
VTT (WebVTT, Web Video Text Tracks) is the W3C-standard subtitle and caption format for HTML5 video, designed to work natively in web browsers without plugins. It supports text cues with precise timing, multiple text tracks, and CSS-based styling for rich caption presentation. VTT is the required format for closed captions on web video platforms, streaming services, and accessibility-compliant applications.
SUB
SUB (MicroDVD Subtitle) is a subtitle format that stores timing as video frame numbers rather than absolute timestamps, making it intrinsically frame-rate dependent. Each subtitle entry uses curly-brace notation for frame numbers and supports basic inline formatting. SUB is a legacy format from the DVD ripping era that is still supported by major media players, though SRT and VTT have largely replaced it for new subtitle content.
