Adding captions or subtitles to your DivX video will not only make it more accessible to more viewers, it will also expand the reach of your content. Providing captions and transcripts of your videos can improve your content’s SEO and help your video rank higher on Google.
Captions also provide a better user experience, resulting in higher average watch times for your videos. Many people choose to watch videos without sound, and adding captions and subtitles will help keep these viewers engaged.
DivX videos are a great option for editors who need a smaller file size without sacrificing video quality. You can add captions and subtitles to your video through the DivX Converter, which we’ll demonstrate in more detail below. DivX software supports AVI, MKV files, and HEVC, and works with standard subtitles file formats such as SRT, SSA/ASS, and DVD/XSUB.
To begin, make sure you have your caption or subtitle file ready to upload. Save yourself time and ensure more accurate captioning with Rev’s captioning and subtitling services. Rev captions and subtitles have quick turnaround times and guaranteed 99% accuracy, all at an affordable cost. Rev captions are also available in the compatible SRT format for DivX videos.
Add Captions or Subtitles to DivX Videos
Visit the official DivX website, download the software, and install it.
Ensure you click the DivX converter checkbox. Click “Next” and accept the End-user license agreement to complete the installation. Next, double click the DivX converter icon on the desktop to launch the application and then follow the steps below.
Step 1: Add Your Video to the Converter
Drag and drop your video file into the DivX converter.
Step 2: Add Subtitle Tracks
To add the subtitle file, click the “+” button in the subtitles section, highlighted in the image above. Browse to the location of the SRT file, select it and click “Open” to add it.
Step 3: Convert the Video
Click “Start” and wait for your video to be converted.
Any error messages are most likely due to a DivX AVI issue caused by a missing codec. To avoid this error, don’t cancel the DivX dynamic download of the required codec after adding the video file into the converter. If the audio track is not in sync with the subtitles, adjust the Delay setting in the “DivX Preferences” menu under “Subtitles”.
