How to convert 890 to srt file

A broadcaster or post-production provider may deliver captions as a Cavena 890 file, while a video player or editing tool accepts only SRT. Converting the file makes the subtitles usable in that workflow.

What the 890 format is

.890 is a Cavena subtitle format used in professional subtitle preparation and broadcast workflows, including systems associated with Cavena and WinCAPS.

What the SRT format is

SubRip (.srt) is a plain-text subtitle format supported by most video players and many editing tools. Each cue contains a number, start and end timestamps, and subtitle text, making SRT easy to inspect and edit. It does not retain the full styling or positioning available in some professional subtitle formats.

Convert online on 101convert.com

  1. Open the 890-to-SRT converter page on 101convert.com and upload the .890 file. The page displays the per-file size limit; you can add several files for batch conversion.
  2. Start the conversion.
  3. Download the resulting .srt file or files.

Convert offline with desktop software

Subtitle Workshop for Windows can open Cavena 890 subtitles and save them as SubRip. Open the file with File → Load subtitle, then choose File → Save as and select SubRip/SRT. Save the output with an .srt extension.

Check timing and text

Review the exported cues against the video. If the source uses frame-based timing, the conversion must use the correct frame rate to avoid shifted subtitles. Check accented and non-Latin characters in the target player, since character encoding can affect their display.
