To help you with adding subtitles to videos, this article will provide you two simple methods. A perfect add subtitle to video software is recommended on part one and some popular online subtitle adders are listed on part two. Of course, how to put subtitles on a video will be resolved by this program handily:
Once a customer from Greece reflected the issue of his that the movie The Invisible Man (2020) he ripped from its DVD version did not carry the Greek subtitle, which annoyed him a lot as he was poor in English. He asked if he could add subtitles to the movie and how to do it.
It’s a common problem. The video maker could never create subtitles in all languages. Sometimes you need to add subtitles to downloaded video or local video manually. Here I gather some information into a simple guide on how to add subtitles to video online and offline.
The Best Program to Add Subtitles
WonderFox HD Video Converter Factory Pro is a good program for adding subtitles. It can:

At first, please free downloadfree download the software and follow the steps.
Step 1. Download a Video Online to Add Subtitles
This step is for those who want to download video from YouTube or other video sharing sites. This software will make short work of downloading online videos.

If you already have a video to be subtitled, skip it, and proceed to step 2.
Step 2. Load Your Video and subtitle file
Exit the Downloader module and open the Converter interface, then click Add Files to load the target videos or drag and drop them to the software.
Next, click the "+" (Add subtitle) button to browser and load local .ass and .srt subtitle files into the software.
Tip: You can download YouTube video subtitles with this software or find and download subtitles from recommended websites online. Alternatively, you can also make use of some subtitle editors to create your own subtitles if there isn't any available to download.

I know that add subtitles to video online freely is more convenient as you don’t need to install any program. However, it will take you too much time when you merge subtitles with video online. Sometimes, you may find that the subtitle is out of sync with the videos. That’s annoying. Comparing the two ways of adding subtitles to video online and offline, taking a great add subtitle to video software would be more powerful as there are no file size and format limits, you can directly add subtitles to video free in the shortest time.
