Could you build this?

Partial Subtitle file parsing, format conversion, and timing-preserving translation are vibe-codeable. Full search across movie and TV subtitles depends on access to a large subtitle database or licensed API.

What it would actually take: Conversion can be built in the browser with parsers for SRT, VTT, ASS, and similar formats. Translation can wrap an LLM or machine translation API while keeping timestamps intact. The search feature needs a large indexed subtitle corpus, which is either licensed from a provider such as OpenSubtitles or built through scraping that raises legal issues.
