We intend to keep up with all sources and formats.\n\nSubtitles are important for many people. If you're learning a new language, subtitles are a great way to learn it from movies or TV shows. If you are hard of hearing, subtitles can help you better understand what's happening on the screen. We aim to make it easy to generate subtitles by using the command line tool or Windows GUI.\n\nThe official repository is ([CCExtractor/ccextractor](https://github.com/CCExtractor/ccextractor)) and master being the most stable branch.\n\n### **Features**\n\n- Extract subtitles in real-time\n- Translate subtitles\n- Extract closed captions from DVDs\n- Convert closed captions to subtitles\n\n### Programming Languages \u0026 Technologies\n\nThe core functionality is written in C. Other languages used include C++ and Python.\n\n## Installation and Usage\n\nDownloads for precompiled binaries and source code can be found [on our website](https://ccextractor.org/public/general/downloads/).\n\n### WebVTT Output Options\n\nCCExtractor supports optional WebVTT-specific headers for advanced use cases\nsuch as HTTP Live Streaming (HLS).\n\n#### `--timestamp-map`\n\nEnable writing the `X-TIMESTAMP-MAP` header in WebVTT output.\n\nThis header is required for HLS workflows but is **disabled by default**\nto preserve compatibility with standard WebVTT players.\n\nExample:\n```bash\nccextractor input.ts --timestamp-map -o output.vtt\n```\n\n### Windows Package Managers\n\n**WinGet:**\n```powershell\nwinget install CCExtractor.CCExtractor\n```\n\n**Chocolatey:**\n```powershell\nchoco install ccextractor\n```\n\n**Scoop:**\n```powershell\nscoop bucket add extras\nscoop install ccextractor\n```\n\nExtracting subtitles is relatively simple. Just run the following command:\n\n`ccextractor \u003cinput\u003e`\n\nThis will extract the subtitles.\n\nMore usage information can be found on our website:\n\n- [Using the command line tool](https://ccextractor.org/public/general/command_line_usage/)\n- [Using the Flutter GUI](https://ccextractor.org/public/general/flutter_gui/)\n\nYou can also find the list of parameters and their brief description by running `ccextractor` without any arguments.\n\nYou can find sample files on [our website](https://ccextractor.org/public/general/tvsamples/) to test the software.\n\n### Building from Source\n\n- [Building on Windows using WSL](docs/build-wsl.md)\n\n#### Linux (Autotools) build notes\n\nCCExtractor also supports an autotools-based build system under the `linux/`\ndirectory.\n\nImportant notes:\n- The autotools workflow lives inside `linux/`. The `configure` script is\n  generated there and should be run from that directory.\n- Typical build steps are:\n```\ncd linux\n./autogen.sh\n./configure\nmake\n```\n- Rust support is enabled automatically if `cargo` and `rustc` are available\n  on the system. In that case, Rust components are built and linked during\n  `make`.\n- If you encounter unexpected build or linking issues, a clean rebuild\n  (`make clean` or a fresh clone) is recommended, especially when Rust is\n  involved.\n\nThis build flow has been tested on Linux and WSL.\n\n## Compiling CCExtractor\n\nTo learn more about how to compile and build CCExtractor for your platform check the [compilation guide](https://github.com/CCExtractor/ccextractor/blob/master/docs/COMPILATION.MD).\n\n## Support\n\nBy far the best way to get support is by opening an issue at our [issue tracker](https://github.com/CCExtractor/ccextractor/issues).\n\nWhen you create a new issue, please fill in the needed details in the provided template. That makes it easier for us to help you more efficiently.\n\nIf you have a question or a problem you can also [contact us by email or chat with the team in Slack](https://ccextractor.org/public/general/support/).\n\nIf you want to contribute to CCExtractor but can't submit some code patches or issues or video samples, you can also [donate to us](https://sourceforge.net/donate/index.php?group_id=190832)\n\n## Contributing\n\nYou can contribute to the project by reporting issues, forking it, modifying the code and making a pull request to the repository. We have some rules, outlined in the [contributor's guide](.github/CONTRIBUTING.md).\n\n## News \u0026 Other Information\n\nNews about releases and modifications to the code can be found in the [CHANGES.TXT](docs/CHANGES.TXT) file.\n\nFor more information visit the CCExtractor website: [https://www.ccextractor.org](https://www.ccextractor.org)\n\n## License\n\nGNU General Public License version 2.0 (GPL-2.0)","funding_links":[],"categories":[],"sub_categories":[],"project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fccextractor%2Fccextractor","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fccextractor%2Fccextractor","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fccextractor%2Fccextractor/lists"}
