Choose an aspect ratio without losing what matters
Aspect ratio describes the shape of your frame, resolution describes its pixel dimensions, and MP4 is a file container. These are separate settings.

Subtitles can be a separate timed text file or captions visible in the video itself. Choose the output you need before exporting.
1. Prepare a speech recording
Upload the video, select Russian, and open the recording manually if you don't need to shorten it. Wait for the source footage and text to be prepared. Quiet speech, background music, and simultaneous conversation between several people can impair speech recognition.
2. Compare the text with the voice.
Listen to the lines and correct the names, professional terms and numbers. Pay special attention to the particle "not": skipping it can completely change the meaning. Check not only a single word, but also the whole sentence.
3. Check the time of appearance
The caption should appear with the speech and stay long enough to be read. If you deleted a scene or rearranged fragments, check the words on both sides of the glue. Editing text by itself does not mean that you need to change the original speech.
4. Import SRT if necessary
SRT It consists of replica numbers, time intervals, and text. For example: 00:00:01,000 → 00:00:03,000 means showing from the first to the third second. In the scene editor, the import timecodes refer to the original recording: the file for the already shortened video may not match the source. Do not change the plain text extension to.srt without correct spacing.
5. Select the design
Adjust the size, position, and contrast. The effects catalog of the scene editor offers word highlighting and other options. In a short scene, it is better to leave less text than to reduce the font to an unreadable size. Watch the video on a small screen.
6. Download the required version
MP4 preserves the appearance of the labels in the image. SRT saves words and timecodes, but not font, color and animation. To publish a separate track, use SRT the corresponding finished export, especially after cutting or rearranging scenes.
If the text differs from the video
First, make sure that you are comparing files of the same version. Then check whether the intervals refer to the source footage or to the mounted video. After the correction, review the beginning, middle and end: one successful match does not confirm the synchronization of the entire record.

What to check before exporting a video
Previewing one scene is not the same as watching the whole video. Review these points after editing, then check the exported file.
