Cinema8’s video hosting platform includes an online automatic subtitle generator designed to keep subtitles closely aligned with hosted video content. Subtitles are generated and applied directly to videos stored in the platform, where they can be reviewed and updated. By managing subtitles within hosted videos, teams avoid manual file handling and ensure captions stay accurate as content changes. With built-in editing tools and secure hosting, organisations can improve accessibility, support multilingual audiences, and manage subtitled videos from a single platform.

How to automatically generate subtitles for videos in Cinema8

Generate and edit subtitles directly in hosted videos using Cinema8’s built-in tools.

Step 1

Upload videos to Cinema8’s hosting platform individually, in bulk, or via API. Once uploaded, videos are stored securely and ready for subtitle generation within the platform.

Step 2

Open the video in Cinema8’s editor and choose to add subtitles. AI-powered transcription generates subtitles automatically, attaching them directly to the hosted video.

Step 3

Edit the generated subtitles to refine wording, timing, or formatting, then publish the video and share the subtitled video with your audience.

Why use Cinema8 for automatic subtitles on hosted videos?

Cinema8 allows teams to generate, edit, and manage subtitles directly within the video hosting platform, rather than handling captions as separate files or manually transcribing content. Subtitles remain attached to each video as it is updated or shared, reducing errors and version drift. This approach supports accessibility requirements, improves clarity for sound-off viewing, and gives teams consistent control over subtitles across all hosted video content.

An online auto subtitle generator automatically transcribes spoken audio into text with AI and applies it as subtitles to a video. Instead of manually typing captions or uploading separate files, subtitles are generated directly from the video content. In Cinema8, subtitles are created and managed within the video hosting platform, allowing teams to review, edit, and publish captions without leaving their hosting environment.
Automatically generated subtitles are designed to be highly accurate, especially for clear speech and standard audio quality. However, accents, background noise, or technical terminology may require review. Cinema8 allows teams to edit generated subtitles directly in the online platform, ensuring wording, timing, and formatting meet their quality and accessibility standards before publishing.
Subtitles remain attached to videos that are hosted in Cinema8's platform when they are published and shared. Because subtitles are managed within the platform, there is no need to handle separate caption files. This ensures viewers always see the correct subtitles wherever the video is embedded or shared.
Subtitles can be updated at any time in Cinema8's video hosting platform. If a video is edited or revised, teams can reopen the video in the video editor, adjust the subtitles, and republish. Managing subtitles this way helps prevent outdated captions and keeps accessibility consistent as content evolves.
Teams that regularly share video content benefit most from an online auto subtitle generator. This includes marketing teams, educators, and organisations with accessibility requirements or multilingual audiences. Managing subtitles within the video hosting platform simplifies workflows, improves clarity for viewers, and reduces the effort involved in maintaining accurate captions across multiple videos.
