Why Hardcode Subtitles?
Subtitles are very common for video fans and the subtitles can help users to understand a foreign video or help hearing impaired users to understand a video very well. There are two popular subtitles types: hard subtitles and soft subtitles. Now many users would like to convert the soft subtitles to hard subtitles, that is, to hardcode subtitles probably due to the soft subtitles drawbacks as below.
- Playing soft subtitles will add processing complexity to the device, so the low-powered devices or devices with low configuration may not play the video with soft subtitles.
- The soft subtitles has poor compatibility with devices, so sometimes users will encounter incompatibility issue or bugs when playing the video with soft subtitles.
- Some video format, such as AVI, can not support soft subtitles well, so sometimes the soft subtitles in an AVI file will not display normally.
On the opposite, the hard subtitles can avoid all the above soft subtitles drawbacks. Because unlike that the soft subtitles are independent from the video, the hard subtitles are a part of the video.
