The SRT slide gives you a way to integrate subtitles and inline assets into your videos with ease.
You need an SRT file to start using it. There are a lot of styling options for your subtitles and you can add a name and a title.

Main Example
Basic usage
The SRT slide has no regular text field. You have a field, SRT, where you paste your SRT file. You also have the option to toggle on "Name & Title". Name has Small (70 characters), and the Title has Small (70 characters) text size.
Fine Print: You also have the option to add a "Fine Print" (300 characters) at the bottom of the slide. The text size is Tiny but can be scaled between 10-100%. The placement of the Fine Print will adapt to the placement of the logo (if the logo is at the bottom of the slide, the Fine Print will move to the top of the slide). Text Alignment - Left, Center, Right.
Slide Settings
Show SRT-text: You have the option to hide the SRT text, to facilitate making other adjustments to the slide.
SRT: This is where you paste your SRT file. Read more on how to create an SRT file in the tool here.
Offset SRT (ms): This is where you adapt the SRT file to any changes in the "Video starting point" for your Background asset, (For example, a Video starting point set to 00:05 = Offset SRT (ms) 5000), for your video and SRT file to play in sync.
Asset 1/Asset 2/Asset 3
You have the option to add up to three assets in the slide.
Use the "Click to browse" function to upload the asset.
Animation: This is where you choose if the asset animates in and/or out.
In time (ms): From what time the asset should be visible in the slide (animated in).
Out time (ms): From what time the asset should not be visible in the slide (animated out).
Start offset: Use if you have a video asset that you don't want to play from the beginning of it. For example, if you have a 2-minute long video that you want as a b-roll, but the part you want to use starts 24 seconds in, then you set the start time offset to 24000 and the asset will play from there.
Position: Choose the position of the asset by using the slider. 0 = left, 50 = Center, and 100 = Right.
Use Main Asset Styling: If you want to be able to have the same styling on your asset as for the Main asset, check the box "Use Main Asset Styling". The styling of the asset will then have the same styling as the Main Asset.
