Does this skill require external software?

Yes, it requires FFmpeg to be installed on your system and accessible via your command line PATH.

Can I preview the subtitles before rendering the whole video?

Yes, you can use the --extract-frame option to generate a single image at a specific timestamp to verify styling and vertical positioning.

Can I customize the look of the subtitles?

Absolutely. You can modify the font family, pixel size, text color, outline thickness, shadow depth, and alignment (top, center, bottom).

What if I don't have an SRT file yet?

It is recommended to use the 'transcribe' skill from the same library to generate an SRT file from your video's audio track before using this embedding skill.

How does it handle Arabic or Hebrew subtitles?

The skill automatically detects RTL languages and applies Unicode directional marks (RLE/PDF) to ensure punctuation and word order are rendered correctly by FFmpeg's drawtext filters.
