Because mplayer displays them correctly without manual breaks. I see now that Mike has already uploaded the English .srt, so it's not automatically generated anymore. Just the splitting of long phrases is automatic. Nevertheless, since a good portion of my sentences bypass the 42 character limit default on many players (Kaffeine, Codeine, Totem etc.), I did segment the text differently from the original English. I can see that the YouTube player manages to squeeze in some 72-75 characters of proportional font in 1920x1080 native resolution (web page, not fullscreen), not sure what happens if the browser has to use a fixed-width font (must be less). One example: the automatic sectioning of the English captions can be awkward: the 2nd phrase is split in 2 'frames' and the split is between "source" and "code": "...working on source" | "code, user interface design..." You can perhaps live with that with some languages, but for other languages that would be a disaster. There's also a limit on how long strings you want to "torture" your audience with ;-) So, to play safe, I did some manual breaks, added sections as necessary, adjusted the timings and tried to respect a good rule of thumbs: One keyword/highlight per line.

Do you mean that one should break manually the text in order to be displayed in youtube correctly? Because mplayer displays them correctly without manual breaks. If manual breaking is really necessary, one can do that, it is just necessary to know how many characters are allowed for one line.

Re: [libreoffice-l10n] New video subtitles for translation: Join the LibreOffice community
Hi Mike; I have prepared my own .srt for Icelandic with proper timings. As I said in another post: Many languages have different length of those sentences; at least in my case I had to split the segments differently from what you'd do for English. I'm pretty sure there are other languages having this problem. Proceeding now to fill in the wiki. Best regards Sveinn í Felli P.S: not sure the list gets the attached .srt file. Hope you get it safely. Þann fim 6.okt 2016 11:12, skrifaði Mike Saunders: Hi Sveinn, Thanks for your help!

Also, if you put your translation on the wiki, others can see it and make any necessary changes too! There are other hilarious parts later in the file. Imagine if you had, say, a Scottish accent? Believe me, I had to tone down my northern English accent quite a lot as well...

Þann fös 7.okt 2016 08:21, skrifaði Milos Sramek: The text in srt is broken according to the proper timing, which makes sense. Wouldn't it be better to translate directly the SRT files to have the correctly timed close captions directly? Yesterday, I hinted at Mike that the (automatically generated CC) .srt made by YouTube was severely broken; the text itself has errors, but also the textflow/segments are quite random. Thus, the timings are incorrect. Mike probably has his own English .srt file, with good timings, and will likely fill it in with the translations and submit to YouTube. BUT there's a hitch: Many languages have different length of those sentences; at least in my case I had to split the segments differently from what you'd do for English. I'm pretty sure there are other languages having this problem. So, I have prepared my own .srt for Icelandic (testing right now) which I'm going to send Mike (in a matter of minutes). Would you like to have the English .srt I made, with correct text but also some additional frames/segments?

[libreoffice-l10n] Video subtitles - srt files?
Hi, I have just uploaded Slovak translation of the Community video. I have also downloaded the video for off-line viewing with translated subtitles in a SRT file (I've just discovered https://www.4kdownload.com/products/product-videodownloader to do that) The text in srt is broken according to the proper timing, which makes sense.
