Paste the written script of the recording. KolReel listens to the audio with local speech recognition and matches each word of your script to the moment you said it — so the subtitles show exactly what you wrote, timed to your voice. Punctuation and paragraph breaks decide where lines split.

Fixing a line: open the video page, scroll to Subtitles. Play the video; the current line is highlighted. Edit the text, adjust start/end (minutes:seconds), split a long line, merge two short ones, or shift everything by a few tenths of a second. Press Save subtitles, then Render again.

Changing the script: if you edit the script text in the side panel, the timing is recalculated on the next render.

No subtitles: untick Burn subtitles into the video or leave the script empty.
