Czech Subtitles & Captions

Knockhundred offers a high-quality Czech subtitling service to a variety of clients across a wide range of business sectors. In fact, we offer professional subtitling services in over 190 languages, including Czech, for cinema, TV, online material, DVD, video, video games, computer games and corporate CD-ROMS.

We can provide captions and Czech captioning services (including closed captions) for those people who are deaf or hard of hearing. These captions will usually contain descriptions of non-dialogue audio (such as laughter or a door slamming).

We also of course provide English subtitling services to a huge range of clients across the globe. Please refer to our languages page to see which languages we can handle.

The art of Czech subtitling

Using subtitling software, we can provide subtitles in virtually any language including Czech, and produce the end result in most industry-standard formats such as plain text, Word, HTML, Final Cut Pro XML, Spruce STL or Subrip (srt).

If you don't see the format you need, just ask, as we may still be able to help. The Czech subtitlers will identify exact positions where each subtitle should appear and disappear. These markers are usually identified by precise time codes/frames dependent on the service you require.

The process of Czech captioning

The process of captioning is much the same as for producing Czech subtitles. The main difference is that the resulting Czech captions will often contain descriptions of sound as well as a direct transcription of the speech.

Czech transcription and translation for film and tv

We regularly translate film and documentary clips providing a finished transcription with time codes ready for Czech subtitles to be created. We are more than happy to produce finished srt subtitle files if you'd prefer.

One-step media translation from video for Czech subtitles

If your source video is in one language, for example English, and you require the subtitles to be in another, for example Czech, our Czech linguists will provide a direct translation into the relevant language and produce time-coded subtitles in a suitable format.

Czech video SEO

Do you have an existing video in Czech, or are you having one produced?  If you want consumers to find your video, please remember search engines can’t watch a video or listen to audio, but they do “understand” (and index) text.  This is why it is important to upload an aligned, accurate Czech transcript to support your video content or to provide Czech subtitles or captions.  This is how search engines will “hear” your video.

WHILE YOU’RE HERE... SOME QUITE INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT THE Czech LANGUAGE

Czech is one of the West Slavic languages. It shares similarities with other Slavic languages, such as Polish or Russian, but it was also influenced by Latin and German. Furthermore it is mutually intelligible with its neighbouring language – Slovak language. Czech influence on language has made it to English with several words including dollar, pistol, polka and robot.

Czech SAMPLE TEXT

„Možná se ptáte, o jaké republice sním. Odpovídám: o republice samostatné, svobodné, demokratické, o republice hospodářsky prosperující a zároveň sociálně spravedlivé, zkrátka o republice lidské, která slouží člověku, a proto má naději, že i člověk poslouží jí. O republice všestranně vzdělaných lidí, protože bez nich nelze řešit žádný z našich problémů – lidských, ekonomických, ekologických, sociálních a politických.“
I dream of a republic independent, free, and democratic, of a republic economically prosperous and yet socially just; in short, of a humane republic that serves the individual and that therefore holds the hope that the individual will serve it in turn. Of a republic of well-rounded people, because without such people it is impossible to solve any of our problems — human, economic, ecological, social, or political.
Vaclav Havel
