Will the SRT work in my editor?

Yes. Cues are numbered from 1, times use the HH:MM:SS,mmm form every editor expects, and overlapping or zero-length cues are corrected before the file is written.

How long is each subtitle?

Each cue is one phrase as the model hears it, usually a few seconds. That suits reading along; for tightly cut social videos you may want to split long cues in your editor.

Does an MP3 work for subtitles?

Yes — MP3 is read frame by frame with no length limit, which makes it the easiest format for long podcast clips and audiograms.

What is said

SRT is what video editors and YouTube take; VTT is what web players read. Both come from the same cues.
