Offline Subtitling

WinCAPS can be used to produce subtitles easily, efficiently and accurately for any recorded media. It supports a comprehensive range of media and file formats, ensuring compatibility with all production and delivery requirements. WinCAPS blends the human skills of the subtitler or translator with state-of-the art audiovisual analysis and speech processing. This delivers high productivity and greater accuracy - the advanced features assist in capturing accurate timecodes, checking spelling and timing, and ensuring that files are consistent with client specifications.

WinCAPS is capable of working in any language and delivering to any format:

  • Open or closed captions for TV
  • DVB subtitles for SD/HD
  • Digital cinema
  • Web streaming

The flexible and easy-to-learn user interface enables each user to personalise toolbars, screen layout and preferences. Style templates can be set up to accommodate different clients, or to reflect the variations in approach between translation subtitling and the preparation of subtitles for deaf and hard-of-hearing people.

One of the advanced productivity features of WinCAPS is the AutoTime option, which aligns subtitle text against the programme audio track in supported languages. This can greatly speed up the task of timing subtitles provided the dialogue is reasonably free from background noise. Another time-saving option is SpeechTime which enables speech recognition to be used to create a timed first-draft offline subtitle file after one re-speaking pass through the programme.

WinCAPS is a proven product that continues to evolve to meet market needs. Its premium feature-set includes all the capabilities that skilled subtitlers demand: flexible import/export, Unicode language support, shot change detection, audio waveform display with speech presence detection, multilanguage spell-checking, text entry using speech recognition, and even text-to-speech synchronisation.
