How to Have Different Colours on YouTube Subtitles?

[gaunt scarab]

I was watching a video by Grian (a Minecraft YouTuber) and I noticed something cool he did to his subtitles - when he is talking, they are white, but when someone else is, it's a different colour. These aren't subtitles in the video editing software btw, these are YouTube subtitles for the video. How does he do this? (Here's an example of it in a recent video of his - https://youtu.be/y0-aZ9AI_zw?si=gLW9HBAS0VSnbgdI)

What editing software do you use?

[gaunt scarab]

i use VideoStar since it was the only one i could find that was completely free while somewhat good.

Ahh sorry I use, davinchi resolve (free) and premiere pro (paid). This feature is an easy fix on those platforms

no worries, i was able to find a free software that can do it called Aegisub, thanks for the other solution tho :))

I have no idea, but I'm also intrigued- following this so I can find out when someone shares the answer!

You should try capcut, it's a REALLY good free software and you can make premiere pro elvel eedits with just a few clicks

I mean, Davinci is completely free and insanely good lmao

there are some things you can get if you pay but they're not like necessary parts of the editing process

But it needs a fairly powerful PC

So not always an option for people

[silent inlet]

yeah that's fair

My old 6700k machine With 8 gigs of ram struggled.

And even that machine is better than what a lot of creators have

in case anyone was curious about how2 actually have stylized closed captions through youtube

and not hard-coded subtitles in the video itself

you need:
https://github.com/wangqr/Aegisub
https://github.com/arcusmaximus/YTSubConverter?tab=readme-ov-file

TL DR; create stylized subtitles inside of Aegisub, use YTSubconverter to make it a .ytt file

then upload that file directly instead of typing them out etc.
