Overview
WebVTT (Web Video Text Tracks) is a file format used for displaying text tracks, such as subtitles, captions, and descriptions, in HTML5 videos. While Trados Studio supports WebVTT natively, there is a WebVTT plugin available that integrates with Trados Studio. This plugin offers additional features by providing contextual placement.
Getting Started
1.Minimum Requirements
- Trados Studio 2019 SR2
2.Installation
You can install WebVTT File Type either directly within Trados Studio via the Integrated AppStore or alternatively you can download and install from the RWS AppStore
3.Access
Once installed, WebVTT can be accessed in various ways:
- Trados Studio Tell Me Feature
- Default Path: Go to File -> Options -> File Types
- New Project: Create New Project -> File Type Identifier Settings
Tip: Update your selected project template with your new file type preference, after completing the project preparation tasks. Alternatively you can update Project Templates by going to File -> Setup -> Project Templates, select your project template to edit and then manage your list of supported file types.
- Existing Project Selected: Project Settings -> File Types
Tip: You can add new files to an existing project, as long as the project is recognised as a Studio project and not a Single file project. However file type need to be manged prior to adding new files (conversion from native to *sdlxliff)
Note: If you don’t see WebVTT as a listed file type, you may need to click on "Additional installed File Types Exist" to enable it as a supported file type.
Working In Trados Studio
1.Recommendation
We recommend working with subtitling files through the Creating projects workflow as apose to Creating projects using Translate Single Document workflow. This is so you can take full advantage of all the benefits that comes with managing Studio projects where as Single file projects are restricted.
2.File Type Identifier
When adding your WebVTT file to a project, make sure the File Type Identifier lists WebVTT V 5.0.0.0 to use the plugin instance, instead of Subtitles 1.0.0.0, which is native to Trados Studio. You can see the File Type Identifier either during the project creation process or in the Files View if your layout is set to "File details layout."
3.Reference File
When working at the Studio Project level instead of "Translate Single Document," you can include an MP4 file as a reference file. The advantages of this are documented in Studio Subtitling
4.Feature support
For more additional feature support and information on how to work with subtitling files in Trados Studio, you may wish to install Studio Subtitling as a companion
