Media Library

Import videos, manage subtitle files, and launch processing tasks — your central workspace before editing.

Overview

The media library is the first screen you see after launching GeekLink. It serves as the central hub for managing your video files and their associated subtitles. From here you can import videos, attach subtitle files, extract embedded subtitle tracks, and start recognition or translation tasks.

Adding Videos

There are two ways to add videos to the media library:

Supported formats include MP4, MKV, MOV, AVI, and other common video containers.

Import SRT

You can import an existing .srt subtitle file as the source-language subtitles for a video. Click the "Import Subtitles" button on a video entry, then select your .srt file. Once imported, the subtitles appear in the subtitle editor for viewing and editing.

Tip Importing an SRT file is useful when you already have subtitles from another tool and want to use GeekLink for translation or style editing.

Extract Embedded Subtitles

When a video file contains embedded subtitle tracks (toggleable subtitles stored in the video container), the media library displays an "Embedded Subtitles" badge on the video entry. Click the badge to see a list of available subtitle tracks, then select the one you want to extract. The extracted subtitles are automatically loaded as the source-language subtitles.

Video Status Badges

Each video entry in the media library displays status badges indicating the current state of its subtitles:

Starting Tasks

The left settings panel provides tabs to launch different processing tasks on the videos in your media library:

Select the appropriate tab, configure your settings, and click the Run button to start processing.
