About this subtitle position changer
The subtitle position changer adds or removes subtitle position tags so captions appear at the top, middle, or bottom of the frame. Moving captions up is useful when on-screen text, scoreboards, or lower-third graphics sit where the subtitles normally land.
It writes alignment tags (the {\an} style used by many players) into the file and can also strip existing tags to reset to default placement. Because players vary in how they honour subtitle positioning, preview the result in your target player to confirm the captions land where you intended.
Common uses
- Move captions to the top of the frame to avoid covering on-screen text.
- Set top, middle, or bottom placement for SRT subtitles.
- Remove existing position markers to reset captions to default placement.
Helpful tips
- Player support for SRT positioning varies, so confirm in your target player.
- Move captions up when lower-third graphics or burned-in text would clash.
- Keep a copy of the original file before changing placement.
