SUB to SSA

Convert captions/subtitles from SUB to SSA


SSA (SubStation Alpha) is utilized to handle, disseminate, and transfer a wide array of subtitle content in a distinct subtitle format. XML (eXtensible Markup Language), on the contrary, is an easy-to-understand language that arranges and structures documents that contain both time and text specifics. Occasionally, it may be necessary to convert SSA files, generated by particular proprietary software, into XML files for compatibility across multiple platforms. Here’s a detailed guide on how to transform SSA to XML using our Caption Subtitle Converter.
