Free Online STL to TTML Converter
Our STL to TTML converter reads Spruce Subtitle input and produces Timed Text Markup Language output entirely in your browser. Source STL timing (SMPTE HH:MM:SS:FF frame timecodes) is converted to TTML timing (seconds (1.500s) or clock values). Styling and markup that the target format cannot represent are normalized or stripped, leaving valid, ready-to-use output. The conversion runs client-side, so your subtitle files are never uploaded to a server.
Input Format
STLSTL (Spruce Subtitle) is a text-based subtitle format used in DVD authoring and some broadcast workflows. Each entry uses comma-separated start and end timecodes followed by the subtitle text, with the pipe character (|) denoting line breaks. This text STL variant is distinct from the binary EBU STL broadcast format.
Output Format
TTMLTTML (Timed Text Markup Language) is an XML-based subtitle format standardized by the W3C and required by Netflix, Apple TV, and broadcast delivery. TTML stores captions in <p> elements with begin/end timing expressed as seconds (1.500s) or clock values, supports rich styling and regions, and is the basis of the IMSC and ITT profiles.
