Danish SUBTITLING FORMATS

Selecting the right subtitling format for Danish content distribution is essential and depends on your service provider or broadcaster requirements. Occasionally there might be a requirement for multiple formats encoding to ensure a proper Danish subtitling feed display across different platforms, devices and channels. We employ professional subtitling software and video editing packages and utilize the best subtitling technology to ensure that our Danish subtitles are both word and time accurate.

Graffiti Studios support a broad range of subtitle formats that allow our customers to specify resolutions, bit rates and video outputs for Danish subtitle burning. Whatever the file format that our clients require, we are readily available to provide it, regardless whether it is a basic file format like, .srt, .sbv / .sub or .scc, .xif for television broadcast or any of the more advanced subtitle formats like .smi and .ttml.

Danish subtitling specifications

While working on Danish subtitling we are considering certain requirements towards the subtitles’ technical parameters. These include limitations like: no more than two lines per subtitle; maximum total length of the subtitle in characters (most often 37); minimum and maximum duration of the subtitle (the duration for which the Danish subtitle is being shown on screen), frame gap, glyph list, line treatment, positional data, timing-to-audio, timing to shot changes, dialogue that crosses shot changes and many more. Extensive name conventions and glossaries are developed to ensure subtitling consistency.
Other considerations for Danish subtitling are the ratio between original and translated Danish text and the alphabet Danish language specific characters. Altogether, these limitations represent a hurdle which makes recreating the original content into Danish accurately enough on the one hand, and making the Danish subtitles compliant with the technical requirements stated above, quite a challenge.

We generate the optimal format for each broadcaster, distribution platform and end-user.

If you don't see the format you need, just ask, as we may still be able to help. Our Danish subtitlers will identify the exact positions where each subtitle should appear and disappear. These markers are usually identified by precise time codes/frames dependent on the Danish subtitling service you require.
