Hello,

I wonder if there is any way/extension to process SRT files with the timestamps as tags. The idea would be to process all the text together, as if it was contiguous, and therefore make the most of TMs.

This is the beginning of the sentence

2
00:00:03,968 --> 00:00:09,067

I would translate it into:

Voici le début de la phrasesuivi de la fin de la phrase

The exported SRT would be:

1
00:00:01,767 --> 00:00:03,901
Voici le début de la phrase

2
00:00:03,968 --> 00:00:09,067
suivi de la fin de la phrase

I can then fiddle with the flow in Aegisub. ▲ Collapse
