Malay subtitles
Translate video to Malay with the subtitles built in
Upload a video in any language, pick Malay (Bahasa Melayu), and download it with the subtitles burned in. Malay stays close to English in length.
What you get back
- Your video as an MP4 with the Malay subtitles burned into the picture, so they play everywhere without a separate file.
- A Malay SRT file you can upload wherever soft subtitles are supported.
- An SRT in the original spoken language, so you have both sides of the translation.
- Plain TXT transcripts of both, for show notes, blog posts, or search.
How Malay subtitles get made
Add your video
Upload an MP4, MOV, AVI, or MKV file, or paste a link from a supported source.
Choose Malay
The speech is transcribed in whatever language it was spoken, then translated into Malay.
Download the result
You get the video with Malay subtitles burned in, plus SRT and TXT files for both languages.
What is different about Malay subtitles
Malay stays close to English in length.
- Malay and Indonesian are close but not the same. Spelling and everyday vocabulary differ enough that a Malaysian audience notices when a file was written for Indonesia.
- Verbs do not conjugate for tense. Separate time words carry it instead.
- Repeated words mark plurals and intensity, as in orang-orang. That is correct Malay rather than a duplicated subtitle.
Formality in Malay
anda is the neutral polite form for an audience you are addressing publicly.

Can I get Malay subtitles on a video that is not in Malay?
Yes, that is the normal case. The speech is transcribed in whatever language it was spoken, and the transcript is translated into Malay. You do not have to tell it what the source language is.
Do I get a Malay subtitle file as well as the video?
Yes. Every job returns the video with subtitles burned in, plus SRT and TXT files for both the original language and Malay, so you can reuse the Malay text elsewhere.
Will Latin characters render correctly in the video?
Yes. Subtitles are burned into the picture after the text has been shaped and laid out, so what you see in the editor is what ends up in the MP4. Accents and special letters survive the burn-in.
Can I fix the Malay wording before I download?
Yes, on the Pro and Studio plans. You can edit the text and timings in the subtitle editor, trim the clip, and reburn before downloading.
