You know those “stylish” subtitles in vertical social-media videos? Really can't stand them.
When they're showing you one word at a time, it becomes a tremendous effort not to miss a word. Understanding a sentence that is shown sequentially is so much more difficult than just seeing the whole sentence at once.
Reading ahead and looking back are features helpful to language learners, not bugs hindering native speakers. Subtitles are meant to serve a purpose, not to look ae…

Wow, the subtitles keep mentioning the cardiologist where it's actually about the choreographist. Yeah, ai is really beneficial, not.

One of the things that is interesting doing mass encodes is verifying all of the little things that can just mess everything up. If you're pulling in stuff like 3rd-party subtitles, then you have to verify the timing of the subtitles and adjust as necessary. Even better, if those are SubStation Alpha subtitles, you have to verify if the style fonts get added as attachments to the MKV file.

You don't need AI, AI needs you.

A screenshot of a Bluesky post by Danielle Froom saying “I need AI to make art, human art is only for the rich and privileged” attached with a screenshot from the first Iron Man movie with edited subtitles, showing the main villain attacking a scientist saying “Your ancestors made timeless art in a cave! With berries and ash!”

Les Trois Mousquetaires : D'Artagnan (2023) felt so right to watch after watching the Toy Story that The Three Musketeers (2011) basically is. It has great English subtitles.
