What is this sami file?

A SAMI file provides closed caption support for multimedia formats. Generally, a multimedia file (such as a video or a sound file) is played by a media player such as Windows Media Player. Media players that support closed captioning and SAMI format may display the contents of the included SAMI file. A SAMI file is a plain text file and therefore can be created or modified in any text editor. Its structure is very similar to HTML. The files may have either .smi or .sami file extensions, although using .smi may cause a file extension collision, since Synchronized Multimedia Integration Language (SMIL) files and Macintosh self mounting images also use this file extension.
