SBV translator.
SBV is YouTube's own subtitle export format: a timecode pair like 0:00:01.000,0:00:03.500 on one line, followed by the text. You get it when you download captions from YouTube Studio.

or click to choose · SRT, VTT, SBV, ASS/SSA, SMI · up to 20 files
First file free (up to 150 cues). 1 credit = 1 file × 1 language.
Drop your .sbv file below, choose the languages, and download a translated .sbv that plays in perfect sync. The file is parsed in your browser; only the cue text is sent for translation.
What stays untouched
The comma-separated start/end pair and blank-line separators are preserved exactly, so the translated file uploads back to YouTube without conversion.
Tip
Download your existing captions as .sbv from YouTube Studio → Subtitles → the three-dot menu → Download, translate here, then upload the result as a new language.
Why not paste into a chatbot
Chat tools reflow timecodes, drop cue numbers and merge lines. Here each cue is translated with the previous cues as context and written back into the original structure, so nothing drifts.
