       Looking for #linux programs for subtitling/captioning videosI've tried aegis, gnome subtitles, and subtitle editor. None of them seem to presume you're doing a video with no subtitles. I also really need the workflow to be I just type out each line of caption, with me choosing when there will be a new line of captions, and then after i'm completely done, me watching the whole video again and sticking each line to the right spot chronologically#subtitles #captioning #accessibility

       gonna try maknig a text file, and then loading that into i guess subtitle editor to see if it'll play nice with time stamping...this is very frustrating to my unmedicated overtired brain.

       @dirething Kdenlive has had caption support as of 20.12. https://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2020/12/kdenlive-20-12-released-new-subtitling-tool/amp/Kdenlive can now even use speech to text (once you get the dependencies set up, which basically means dragging a link of the resources from your browser to the setup window) to autogenerate captions (which need editing, but it's often a start).https://kdenlive.org/en/2021/04/kdenlive-21-04-released/It has a few caption editing interfaces, including moving & editing on the timeline (with image thumbs and waveforms as reference).

       @dirething Whoops! I meant to link directly to the subtitle section of the documentation, which goes in depth over how it can handle subtitles (including import and export of common formats):https://userbase.kde.org/Kdenlive/Manual/Timeline/Editing#Subtitle
