What Add Text to Video does

Burn a short text label into a video at a selected position. The tool keeps the operation focused and creates a separate result so the original remains available for comparison.

Add Text to Video uses a bounded server request with explicit input, time, output, and rate limits.

How to use Add Text to Video

Keep the original while using Add Text to Video. Review the entered values or selected file, run the focused operation, and save only a result that passes your checks.

  1. Select a short representative video, animation, or capture source and confirm the displayed duration and dimensions.
  2. Choose the required timeline range, frame, layout, audio, or output settings for the destination.
  3. Create the result and watch the complete preview, including transitions and the first-to-last loop boundary when relevant.
  4. Test the downloaded file in the target browser, player, editor, or publishing service before deleting the source.

Where Add Text to Video fits

Use this media workflow to prepare a short clip, recording, or animation for a known player, platform, presentation, or editing step. Decide the required dimensions, duration, frame behavior, audio state, and output format before processing so every setting has a clear purpose.

What to check

Use short text, select a corner or center position that does not hide important content, and verify legibility against both light and dark frames.

Review the whole timeline for correct framing, orientation, timing, animation loops, audio sync, captions, and legible overlays. A short representative clip is useful when choosing compression settings.

Privacy and limitations

Recordings created with browser capture APIs remain local. FFmpeg conversions upload only the selected input file or files and use temporary workspaces with best-effort cleanup after the request.

Browser capture support and playable codecs vary by device. Re-encoding may change quality, exact frame timing, metadata, transparency, or file size, and long or high-resolution media can exceed the documented request or memory limits.
