Supported Subtitle Formats

TeraBox supports the most commonly used subtitle formats for videos. Before uploading, make sure your subtitle files are in one of the following formats:

• .srt (SubRip Subtitle) – Most widely supported and simple text format.
• .ass (Advanced SubStation Alpha) – Supports styling and positioning.
• .vtt (WebVTT) – Often used for web video platforms.

Tip: For best compatibility, keep your subtitle files in .srt format and encoded in UTF-8.

Troubleshooting Subtitles Not Showing

If your subtitles aren’t appearing in TeraBox, here are some common issues and how to fix them:

Subtitle File Name Doesn’t Match Video

• Ensure the subtitle file name matches the video file name exactly (except the extension).
• Example: myvideo.mp4 and myvideo.srt

Wrong File Format

• Double-check the subtitle format. Unsupported formats like .txt or .docx won’t work.

Encoding Issues

• Use a text editor like Notepad++ to save the file as UTF-8 without BOM.

Old App Version

• Update to the latest version of Terabox to ensure subtitle features are available.

Subtitles Not Enabled in Player

• Manually open the video player settings and turn on subtitles.

File Upload Incomplete or Corrupted

• Re-upload both the video and subtitle files and try again.

Alternative to Subtitles

Changing the language could be an alternative to subtitles. In Terabox, you can change the audio language of your video to your preferred language. Please read our detailed article on changing the audio language in Terabox.
