How do I import my subtitles into VLC Player?

← Subtitles & Exporting
Although InqScribe is built around QuickTime and Windows Media Player, you can also use VLC Player to playback subtitled videos with your InqScribe transcript. Here's how:
  1. Open InqScribe.
  2. Prepare your transcript.
  3. Once it's ready, select "File > Export > SubRip Format..."
  4. Select a name for your file and specify its save location with the "Choose..." button. This will create a SubRip .srt file of your transcript.
  5. Open VLC Player.
  6. In VLC Player, select "Media > Open File" from the top menu bar, choose the video file associated with your subtitles, and select "Open."
  7. The video will begin playing. Now select "Subtitle > Add Subtitle File..." Choose the SubRip file you created in InqScribe (ending in .srt) and select "Open."
  8. VLC Player will now display your subtitles!
