Key features
  • Media input — Open dialog and drag-and-drop for mp4 / mov / mkv / webm / mp3 / wav / m4a / aac / ogg. Files are streamed to the renderer through a custom media:// protocol that…
  • Local transcription (honest engine detection) — on launch subnix probes localhost for a running Whisper HTTP server.
  • Segment editor — segment list synced to the video: each row has mm:ss.d → mm:ss.d time chips with ±0.1s nudge buttons, click-to-seek, and an inline editable text area. The…
  • Segment operations — add a cue at the playhead, split a cue at the current time, merge a cue with the next, and delete.
  • Video preview + live overlay — native <video> element with a styled <div> caption overlay driven by timeupdate (not <track>), plus play/pause and a seek slider.
  • Caption styling — font family, size, background opacity, screen position (bottom/middle/top) and colour. Styling applies to both the live overlay and the burn-in command.
  • Import — load an existing .srt/.vtt and edit it (works with or without a loaded video).
  • Export — SRT (comma decimals) and VTT (WEBVTT, dot decimals), UTF-8, save dialog defaulting next to the source, plus a "Saved / Show in folder" toast.

Read before you use subnix

subnix is experimental software shared free of charge. Using it means accepting the terms below in full. If you do not accept them, do not download or run it.

Experimental, unfinished software
This is a personal side project released as an experiment, not a commercial product. It may contain bugs, may behave unpredictably, may stop working after an operating system update, and may be abandoned at any time without notice or migration path.
No warranty of any kind
The software is provided "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE", without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement. No promise is made that it is accurate, reliable, secure, uninterrupted, or error-free.
You accept all risk
You install and run this software entirely at your own risk. Before using it, back up anything you care about. Tools that rename, move, delete, compress, encrypt, sync, or otherwise modify files can cause irreversible data loss if they behave unexpectedly or are used incorrectly.
No liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, NixBiz and Anand Bhandari accept no liability for any damages whatsoever — including data loss, corrupted or deleted files, lost profits, business interruption, hardware issues, security incidents, or any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages — arising from or connected to your use of, or inability to use, this software.
Unsigned builds and security prompts
Builds are not code-signed. Windows SmartScreen, macOS Gatekeeper, or your antivirus may warn about or block them. Only ever download from an official NixBiz link, and verify anything you run. Never disable your security software on account of this project.
Your data, keys, and third-party services
These tools are designed to run locally, but some features can connect to third-party services you configure yourself. You are responsible for your own API keys, credentials, costs, and for complying with those providers' terms. Any charges you incur with a third-party provider are yours alone.
Not for critical or regulated use
This software is not intended for, and must not be relied on in, any safety-critical, medical, legal, financial, or otherwise regulated setting, nor anywhere failure could cause injury, loss, or legal exposure. It is not a substitute for professional advice or a supported commercial tool.
Free, and no support promised
The software is free to use. There is no service level agreement, no guaranteed support, no guaranteed updates, and no guaranteed compatibility with your system or with future versions.
Your responsibilities
You are responsible for using the software lawfully, for respecting the rights of others, and for ensuring your use complies with any policies that apply to your device, employer, or jurisdiction.

These terms sit alongside the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Where a project ships its own licence, that licence governs the software itself.
