BakaSub is a video subtitling application designed for GTK+/Gnome users, providing subtitle creation and editing tools to enhance the viewing experience.
The program has been designed to be fully compliant with Gnome standards while incorporating Gnomey features like graphics drag'n'drop and concurrent events. Currently, there are no Gnome specific features, but this is expected to change in later versions.
BakaSub is directly inspired by Kotus' popular and god-like Sub Station Alpha program for Windows. While both programs do not share any actual code, BakaSub aims to ensure full Sub Station Alpha compatibility. This guarantees that any script you create with BakaSub can be shared with friends who have SSA.
In more recent versions of BakaSub, the decision was made to break away from SSA's user interface to make it more user-friendly. This has enabled the program to provide a scale-model preview with all concurrent subtitles and graphics instead of just a single subtitle.
The latest updates to the program include the introduction of a more functional frame slider, SSA 3.x save support, Sconv integration, and plug-in architecture. Additionally, there are two new plug-ins, the SSA loader and the external rendering playback device.
Overall, BakaSub is an excellent program that is perfect for video subtitling that ensures full compatibility with other programs like Sub Station Alpha.
