  Suppose I subtitle a video of myself reading a story. I can use software like gaupol to insert subtitles into a .srt file at particular times. But I shouldn't have to retype the whole story, given I was reading it off the screen when I made the video!
  
  Is there a way to auto-fill the .srt with the text I already have?
