SubtitleYC v0.2.0 Beta 2

SubtitleYC v0.2.0 Beta 2

SubtitleYC is a free and open-source Windows app for extracting, reviewing,
and editing frame-timed subtitles from video.

MIT Release

Beta 2 is the first release whose installers, bundled application files, and
installer licence page consistently use the MIT License. Bundled third-party
tools retain their own licences, which are included with the installation.

Highlights

• Local video and URL workflows in one desktop app.
• Native PyAV frame preview with crop selection and subtitle overlay.
• CPU and Nvidia GPU VideOCR editions.
• Subtitle import, cue timing edits, undo/redo, and SRT export.
• yt-dlp format and site-subtitle discovery.
• Project library, storage controls, activity rows, local logs, and crash logs.
• Dark and light themes with persisted settings.

Choose an Installer

• CPU is the safest default and does not require an Nvidia GPU.
• CUDA 12.9 is for supported Nvidia GTX 16 through RTX 50 systems.

Installing another edition replaces the app and OCR runtime while preserving
the user's workspace under %LOCALAPPDATA%\SubtitleYC\workspace.

Known Limitations

• This is prerelease software and may still contain crashes or UI defects.
• OCR accuracy depends on language, image quality, crop, and source frame rate.
• Video websites change independently; yt-dlp workflows can require app updates.
• The GPU installer is large because it includes the CUDA OCR runtime.
• These beta installers are not Authenticode-signed. Windows may show an unknown-publisher warning; compare the SHA-256 digest shown by GitHub before running them.

Verify the Download

GitHub displays a SHA-256 digest beside each installer asset. To calculate the
digest of a downloaded installer in PowerShell:

Get-FileHash .\SubtitleYC-0.2.0-beta.2-windows-cpu-setup.exe -Algorithm SHA256

Compare the result with the digest shown on the release page before installation.
