What the SRT Subtitle Line Length Checker Checks

  • SRT block shape

    Caption numbers, timestamp rows, and text blocks are parsed in the common SRT layout.

  • Line length limit

    Each subtitle text line is compared with the selected character limit, defaulting to 42 characters.

  • Dense captions

    Captions with more than two text lines are flagged for readability review.

  • Timestamp format

    Timestamp rows are checked for the HH:MM:SS,mmm to HH:MM:SS,mmm pattern.

  • Review-only output

    The tool reports readability issues but does not automatically split or retime captions.
