Free Online STL to SRT Converter

This converter reads text-based Spruce STL subtitle entries and writes standard SubRip cues. Pipe-separated STL lines become subtitle line breaks, common bracketed inline tags are removed, and the output is numbered SRT text with start and end timestamps. Parsing and conversion stay in your browser, so the subtitle file is not uploaded.

Input Format

STL

STL here refers to the text-based Spruce Subtitle format. Its cue lines commonly contain a start time, an end time, and subtitle text, with vertical bars used as line separators. The STL family also includes the binary EBU broadcast format, but this converter does not parse EBU GSI or TTI blocks.

Output Format

SRT

SRT (SubRip) is a widely supported plain-text subtitle format. Each cue has a sequential number, an HH:MM:SS,mmm --> HH:MM:SS,mmm timestamp line, and one or more text lines. SRT keeps text and timing but does not preserve source styling or positioning metadata.

Features

Reads text-based Spruce STL cue lines
Converts supported STL time formats to SRT millisecond timestamps
Turns STL vertical-bar line separators into SRT line breaks
Removes common bracketed inline tags from subtitle text
Writes sequentially numbered, UTF-8 SRT output
Processes files locally in your browser without uploads

Why Convert?

SRT is easier to inspect and edit as plain text than the STL formats used by authoring tools.
SRT is widely recognized by media players, editors, and subtitle workflows.
STL line separators can be converted into normal SRT line breaks.
SRT uses explicit start and end times for every cue.
Converting to SRT can make older subtitle text easier to reuse in modern tools.

Format Differences

Spruce STL cue lines contain start time, end time, and text; SRT uses numbered blocks.
STL often represents line breaks with vertical bars; SRT uses physical text lines.
STL inline tags and formatting are not part of standard SRT cue text.
SRT timestamps use hours, minutes, seconds, and milliseconds.
SRT does not carry source styling or screen-position metadata.

Common Use Cases

Subtitle Reuse

Convert text-based Spruce STL material into SRT for reuse in players and editors that expect SubRip input.

Text Cleanup

Turn vertical-bar line separators into normal SRT line breaks while removing common bracketed inline tags.

Timing Review

Move explicit STL start and end times into SRT cues for easier timing inspection and editing.

Format Standardization

Include supported STL files in a project that is being standardized around SRT delivery.

Common bracketed inline tags are removed from the text before the SRT cues are generated.

No. The converter keeps the text and timing, but does not map STL formatting or positioning to SRT.

Vertical bars in STL text are converted into normal line breaks in the SRT output.

Yes. There is no registration or watermark, and parsing happens in your browser.

No. Processing stays in your browser and the subtitle file is not uploaded.
