SRT means two things: a subtitle file (SubRip, .srt) and a live streaming protocol (Secure Reliable Transport). How to tell which one you need and where each is used.

Open vs closed captions: burned into the picture or sent as a file the viewer can switch off. What each is good for, which networks take which, and how to make both.
