Poliscript Create is outdated it doesn't support many features taken for granted nowadays.Īny other half-decent tool I know of is way above €500. Titlebee saves your work to the cloud without giving you access to it (this will almost always break the NDA) Ĥ. To give you a quick rundown on your ideas:ġ. I'm afraid your budget is unrealistic - there's simply no pro software under €500 that supports Windows and is worth considering. I would mostly do subtitling on timed-coded templates, sometimes also proofreading/QC. I use Windows and would like to stay under €500. Adjusting time-codes seemed clumsy, I couldn't set the time-out code manually When checking the subtitles, they didn't automatically show up red when the reading speed was exceeded, but only when I clicked on them I couldn't accurately position the subtitles (top of screen, bottom middle etc.) I can't say much about Aegisub, but the problems I had with Subtitle Edit were I've tried Subtitle Edit and Aegisub, and both seem somewhat clumsy.

So, before I can give you advice, I need to know what exactly you need professional software for - that is, what exact features not present in the free tools (e.g. A couple of other perks are very few (if any) bugs/errors and robust customer support. Professional software, which can be extremely expensive, is often not worth it - it does not necessarily make you work faster or better it only provides a set of means to automate your workflow, customize the environment and easily adhere to a wide spectrum of standards used for various kinds of subtitling (of which there are many). Are there other ones that are (almost) as good? What would you recommend? What are the pros and cons?

I can't afford anything as expensive as EZTitles or Titlevision. Now, I have some new clients who would like me to purchase my own professional software.

I've been doing subtitling for several years, using the companies' proprietary software. I did already start a new topic, but I could just as well ask here too.
