Convert TTML
to TXT
Drop in a .ttml (Timed Text Markup Language) file, get a clean .txt (Plain text transcript) back. Plain text transcript is a clean transcript with no timestamps — one line per cue, ready to paste anywhere. The conversion runs entirely in your browser — your captions never leave the page.
Frequently asked
Why convert TTML to TXT?+
Timed Text Markup Language is the W3C XML standard used by streaming platforms (Netflix, Disney+) and broadcast pipelines. Plain text transcript is built for show notes, blog posts, search indexing, LLM input. Converting lets you take a file produced for one workflow and use it in the other without re-typing or re-timing anything.
Is timing preserved exactly?+
Yes. The converter only re-encodes the file structure — start and end times round-trip to within one millisecond. Plain text output drops timestamps entirely; the underlying cue order is preserved.
Does any styling survive the conversion?+
Most styling drops in this direction. TTML supports inline styling and TXT doesn't, so override codes, cue tags, and positioning attributes are stripped. Timing and text always survive.
Does this run on a server?+
No. The conversion is pure JavaScript running in your browser — files never upload anywhere. Works offline once the page is loaded.
