# How to Generate Video Subtitles with ChatGPT

ChatGPT makes subtitle creation conversational and collaborative. Extract the transcript, review it together for accuracy, and generate formatted subtitle files with proper timing. ChatGPT can produce subtitles in multiple languages from a single source transcript, making it especially valuable for international content distribution.

## Setup

## Steps

1. Configure ToolRouter in ChatGPT
2. Ask: "Transcribe this video and create subtitles in SRT format"
3. ChatGPT extracts the transcript and formats it as proper subtitle entries
4. Request corrections for any technical terms or names
5. Ask for subtitle translations in additional languages

## Example Prompt

```
Get the transcript from this YouTube video and create subtitle files in English and Spanish SRT format.
```

## Tips

- ChatGPT can produce subtitle files in multiple languages from one transcript
- Ask for accessibility-compliant formatting with proper line breaks
- Request a review of subtitle timing and readability
