Hi

I came across a subtitle file jux-349.ass (on this site)

I see it has a lot of formatting and font details for every line. However my video players do not recognise the files. My online converter does not have this file type to convert to .srt.

Does this need a special player? It seems like a lot of work but the end result must be great.

Is there any software that converts to .ass?

Thanks
ally

.ASS are the more sophisticated subtitles format.
It allows almost anything (font, size, color, location on the screen, ...)

Unless you have restrictions, you should consider using a better video player. Eg: VLC can read almost any video and subtitles formats.

There are many tools to convert ASS (or SSA) to SRT. Here is a fair one: https://sorz.github.io/asstosrt-wasm/

But of course, all the formating options will be removed in the resulting SRT file.

Thanks. As you know,I do have restrictions as I do this on my mobile.

I'll see if I can find an app just to see the result. I'm happy doing and using .srt files.

Cheers
Ally

Yes, I remember, but VLC is also available on mobile devices.
That being said, I understand when people have a favourite player (I do) :)

There will be an SSA to SRT converter and a sync tool on this site, but I can't tell you when.
