Abstract

A subtitle management system is provided that analyzes and adjusts subtitles for video content to improve the experience of viewers. Subtitles may be optimized or otherwise adjusted to display in particular regions of the video content, to display in synchronization with audio presentation of the spoken dialogue represented by the subtitles, to display in particular colors, and the like. Subtitles that are permanently integrated into the video content may be identified and addressed. These and other adjustments may be applied to address any of a variety of subtitle issues and shortcomings with conventional methods of generating subtitles.
