Recognize subtitles without sound?

Hi! Small question to community

I have 12 videos wich have no sound, but subtitles "fixed" in them without separate SRT file

If there Ai or program to recognize them and\or translate to other languages?

Thanks

I don't think such things exists. You would need to do some coding work to gule a few tools together. I would do "FFmpeg -> OpenCV -> Tesseract OCR -> tanslator".
- Thanks! WIll try it. Also found this in another community answer -> https://sourceforge.net/projects/videosubfinder/files/latest/
  
  Congrats on finding a suitable program. It looks promising.
subtitles “fixed” in them without separate SRT file
can you turn them on and off? meaning, is there a text track embedded in the video file, or is the text actually rendered into each frame?
if the former, you can easily extract them into an SRT file (or another format) using ffmpeg: https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/ExtractSubtitles
- the text actually rendered into each frame
