# Chapter 4. How to edit and preview SRT-subtitles

With TEA you can edit and preview SRT-subtitles. To work with them properly, you need:

1. Open SRT-file as a usual text file.

2. "Open" a movie file using the File > Open different > Open movie.

3. Edit your SRT-file. Save it.

4. When you activate View > Preview in Mplayer, TEA finds the start time of the current subtitle section, and runs Mplayer with movie which you have selected before by Open movie. TEA also talk Mplayer to jump to the time what is needed for the current subtitle section (actually, after such "rewind", due to Mplayer's nature, it shows the next subtitle AFTER the current one, so choose in TEA previous subtitle to view correctly the current one. A weird sentence, isn't it? But, try to use and you'll understand).
