Abstract
A method of subtitling comprises the steps of obtaining an audio file of dialogue in a first language, obtaining a file of script text corresponding to the dialogue in the audio file in the same first language, determining a timing correspondence between dialogue in the audio file and words in the script text, detecting at least a first pause during performance of the dialogue in the audio file, defining a respective breakable point in the script text corresponding to the or each detected pause, and dividing the script text out into a sequence of subtitle lines of text responsive to the location of one or more of the defined breakable points.
