Attaching .scc files in PP -- not working

Okay... I'm almost at my wits end.
I've been doing closed captioning and subtitling for 10 years, I use the industry-standard software, I follow the workflows... and yet I cannot get any captions to display in PP CS 5.5
I've looked through the forums, watched the VideoBrain help videos and it all seems so simple.
Has anybody actually been able to get the "attach closed captions (.SCC format) to sequence" to work and display?
Yes, the output is enabled on the program monitor. The timecode is correct in the timeline, the sequence and the .SCC file.
The .SCC files work in all other software including Adobe Encore.
There are no error messages displayed.
Tech support has been unable to help at all nor can they escalate anything to a senior technician in anything under three days. I've had each tech (three) who calls me back ask me the same sets of questions but unfortunately all they are able to do is browse their own forums and online manuals which we all have access to already.
It can't be this hard and money is flowing out my window as I see contracts collapsing...
Has anybody had any success?
OR does anybody know of a workaround? I'm trying to embed closed captions in an .mxf container and was trying to use PP to create the sequence then use Media Encoder to output it.
Sorry for the frustrated rant
Dave

No no. What I'm attempting to do is use Media Encoder to encode a PP sequence that has CC data attached. All I want is the CC data to be accessible when broadcasting the MXF file. I understand that I shouldn't be able to see them (other than in the PP program window). However, I should be able to see them in an MXF viewer which I checking with the folks at VLC and AmberFin right now.
You can use the TC00.scc file located in the FTP below. It's a test file with captions every 30 seconds (for 10 second duration) starting at 00:00:00:00. I just created a six minute "bars and tone" video with PP and used that for video.
The FTP information is:
HOST: intercaption.com
USER: captioner
PASS: access
If you get it to work let me know and I'll send you the real data but it's a HUGE file.

    cor-el,
    Thanks for your prompt reply. However, the sources you gave do not seem to apply exactly to my situation. I have attached some screenshots that show what the dialogue box looks like for a pdf download, and what my settings in the Apps panel of Options are. You will note in the first screenshot that I have checked the box to handle this file type automatically; however, the next time I try to download a file of that type, the same dialogue box appears looking exactly like the one shown, so checking the "automatic" option appears to do nothing. The files to be downloaded from my Gmail messages are not generic or altered file types - they are shown as pdf, doc, docx, etc. So while your intent was good, your post did not help. Thanks anyway.

  • Mail is not saving attachment and save as is not working

    Suddenly my Mail is not saving attachment and save as is not working. I tried to save an email as I use to do but it is not completing the task. I should I do?
    Thanks for any help,
    Mario Lordeiro

    Mario,
    Was there also NO choice to View As Icon, in the contextual menu? If not, these items/images may be embedded in HTML, rather than true attachments. Other choices for normal attachments would include Open Attachment, Open With, Save to Downloads Folder -- are any of those present in the contextual menu?
    With such a message open, click on View in the menubar, place the cursor on Message in the pull-down menu, and choose Raw Source. Is there any HTML code present? Is there a header immediately before any code representing what you believe is an attached file?
    If need be, I can send you an email message with a known form of attachment.

  • Hyperlink to file in JSP not working

    I have a JSP page where I am providing a hyperlink to a file on the C: drive as follows
    Try this
    Nothing happens when I click this hyperlink.
    When I scroll over the hyperlink I see the correct path "file:///C:/ReqImport/data.txt" in the status bar and when paste this path in my address bar, it does open up the file.
    Any ideas why this file hyperlink does not work on this JSP page.
    Thanks

    Hmm, you're right, I just tried it and it doesn't appear to work. It looks like a security thing: If the original page is on my hard drive, links to other files on my hard drive work. But when the original page is on a web server, links to files on my hard drive don't appear to work.
    Do you realize that such a link is referring to a file on the C: drive of the client, the user, not the C: drive of the server? I'm not sure what you're up to, but for most applications such a link is pretty much useless, as you normally have no way of knowing what files the user has on his C: drive.

  • File sharing is not working from pc to imac os x 10.9.2

    file sharing is not working from pc to imac os x 10.9.2

    Hello there Karen,
    It sounds like you are having to power cycle your modem to get internet back every single day. We can start by troubleshooting your Airport Express to help isolate the issue. I would first perform a Soft Reset, then test the issue again. If needed as a last resort I would then perform a Hard Reset:
    Soft reset
    Connect the device to power and wait for it to complete its start up process. To learn more about the start up process, please see All about Wi-Fi base station Status Lights (LED).
    Press and hold the reset button with a pen, pencil, or straightened paperclip for 1 full second, then release it. The light (LED) will begin flashing amber, indicating that the device is in soft reset mode.
    From the AirPort menu bar item, choose the network created by the device (the network name does not change).
    Open AirPort Utility from Applications > Utilities.
    Select the base station, then click Edit (The Edit window will indicate that the base station is in Soft Reset mode).
    Move through the tabs to make changes to your passwords or other settings as needed, and click Update and Continue as required
    Quit AirPort Utility.
    Hard reset
    Press and hold the reset button with a pen, pencil, or straightened paperclip until you see the status light (LED) start to flash amber rapidly, which should occur after about five seconds.
    Release the button and the device will reset.
    Wait about a minute for the base station to finish restarting, then open AirPort Utility from Applications > Utilities.
    Select the base station from Other Wi-Fi Devices, then click Edit.
    Select the Other Options button.
    Select "Restore previous settings" and click Next until you get to the final window.
    AirPort Utility will indicate that Setup is complete. Click Done.
    Quit AirPort Utility.

  • File manager still not working w 10.7.3combo

    Since installing lion (I started with 10.7.2) file manager is not working. Yes, I can force uit it and than it does but it is still very annoying and time consumin to do it 2-4 times a day. I was hoping that 10.7.3 will solv it. Than installed based on advice I received hee 10.7.3 compbo but the problem is still there.
    Do you know or have you run accross a thread that explains how to solve it?
    Advanced thats to anyone who can help
    Ruvy

    What is "file manager?"  Is that a piece of third-party software, or are you referring to the Finder?  If it's third-party software, you'll need to contact the developer for an update or fix.  If the Finder is not working (how is it not working?), then you could try some of the tips in Understanding upgrade nightmares.

  • Gmail attach file icon does not work

    Is there a way to fix this problem? I tried network.http.spdy.enabled to false. No go. I tried resetting all the settings in ie, per a suggestion somewhere, no go.
    Safe mode - does not work.
    This problem seems to have come from no where. I can drag files into gmail, but the attach file icon does nothing.
    Attach file icon works in IE, but I am trying to use Firefox.
    Is there a fix or do I need a new computer?

    I also have this problem. It just started today out of the blue. Whenever I hit "attach file" in gmail, I never get a "file explorer" popup. Simply nothing happens.
    * I'm running 31.0 on Mac 10.8.5.
    * I have tried resetting firefox several times. I've tried restarting in safe mode multiple times. Nothing will allow the window to appear.
    * I've tried various (old) fixes I found through searching (mostly involving about:config settings) but none worked.
    * Drag and dropping files onto a note DOES work (but this is no solution!).
    * I have cleared the cache several times but to no avail
    * I don't have the stomach (or time) now to completely uninstall and re-install. Not yet anyway.
    * This function works fine in Chrome and Safari
    I finally went and UNCHECKED popup blocking. Now I get the file popup immediately! So it would seem that somehow Firefox is blocking the file "finder" interface as a popup. What gives?

    Hi Hussein,
    Yes, I am able to print seed concurrent report (o/p -text) to that printer (method:- giving the printer name and copies by clicking " Option " in SRS window.. )
    When i do the same for xml publisher publisher report to the same printer , its not working using bursting control file.
    I too made the test in xml publisher report without bursting control file , there i faced another new issue. Let me explain
    1. We are using RDF as data source . here o/p :-" XML "
    2. We are using RTF as layout. In template definition, i chose the default o/p type as :- "HTML"
    3. When i submit the request, i choose the printer which is working fine for printing seeded report. (method:- giving the printer name and copies by clicking " Option " in SRS window.. )
    4. My printer getting prints HTML tag, instead of desired o/p. I wondered after seeing the printout.
    5. I cross checked by clicking view output, its showing me the exact html output as per RTF layout.
    Dont know wat happening ??? Help me out.
    i did the same for changing default output type in template definition to RTF,PDF.. its printing source code of the output type instead of printing output.
    Thanks & Regards,

  • Uploading files to website not working with Safari in Windows 7

    Safari version: 5.1.7
    OS: Windows 7
    Hi,
    I am a website owner, and I have a feature on my site where users can upload large (up to 50MB) music files to my server. The feature works in Firefox on OSX & Windows platforms and it also works in Safari on OSX. The uploading feature is not working with Safari for Windows. Do you have any idea why and how to fix this? It can't be an issue with my server as it works in other browsers fine and works fine in Safari for OS X.
    If you have any information on how to solve this or things for me to try to rectify this for use with Windows operating system it would be much appreciated.
    Thanks.

    GREAT NEWS!!!!
    I have solved this issue myself with some help from my a user on Microsoft Forums. The issue stems from the mime type of each Browser Chrome, IE, & Safari for Windows defaults as audio/wav. When the mime type is changed to audio/x-wav everything works. Firefox defaults to audio/x-wav and when changed to audio/wav it DOES NOT work.
    Once I input some code in my .php upload page to change the mimetype if audio/wav is detected everything works GREAT!!!
    So Here is what you need to do: Find your upload page and input this code:
    echo "<p>MIME Type: ".$_FILES["file"]["type"]."</p>";   
    right before your "If/then" statement of file type. For me it was near line 30 in my upload.php page, but I'm sure this is different for everyone.
    This will detect and DISPLAY the default mime type of your browser on the error page when your upload doesn't work. Once you know what mime type works for your file type then you can change your "if/then" statement for mime type upload to change your mime type to the correct one.
    I don't want to give the code here, because I'm sure it's specific to your file types and your site construction, but this should lead you on the right track.
    ***This is the solution if you ARE NOT ABLE to upload any certain file in a certain Browser. It has to do with mime type construction***
    I hope this helps others like it helped me!!!!!

  • How can i delete a file that is not working?

    Hi there. I have the following problem. Under the all files folder there are a couple of .avi files that do not appear anywhere else on my system, they are not working and they cannot be deleted or opened! When I click on them, I get a message that says delete, repair alias or ok. Click delete or ok and nothing happens, click repair and it says locate the original file. When I do so, again nothing happens!!
    Can anyone please help? I want to get rid of them as they are taking over a precious 10GB on my macbook air
    Thank you

    OK, this officially crosses over to the bizarre.
    I believe booting from the Lion recovery partition and selecting Disk Utility is next. Run "repair disk". I believe that it will find some directory corruption and should fix it.
    Here are a couple of places to go for more help, courtesy of Pondini.
    Verify your internal HD, per #6 in Using Disk Utility.

  • Dynamic port configured for FILE adapter is not working

    Hi,
    I have a simple dynamic port in an orchestration that writes a file to a file location. Here is the configuration
    ================
    FilePort(Microsoft.XLANGs.BaseTypes.Address) = "FILE://c:\\TestFolder\\Out";
    FilePort(Microsoft.XLANGs.BaseTypes.TransportType) = "FILE";
    ================
    When I run this orchestration, the dynamic port does not write the file to the folder, however I does not show any error either. It is always in "Ready to Run" state where the message is "Queued Awaiting".
    I tried all sorts of combinations like FILE:// FILE:\\ File: file:// file:\\ etc... and also without the moniker, just c:\.... I get the same problem.
    when I use a static port(subscribed to the same message) it works fine. When I use a static port ALONGWITH this dynamic port then both works fine !!! I receive 2 files.
    but when I use only dynamic port it does not work!!
    Anybody knows how to solve it.
    THANKS IN AVANCE
    PLEASE HELP
    Surya

    It could be becasue you 're not passing in the file name, Try something like this..
    SndPort_Dynamic(Microsoft.XLANGs.BaseTypes.Address)=@"file://C:\Test\Try\Out\Test1.xml";
    But even when you don't pass the file name, i was expecting the erro to be like:
    The FILE send adapter cannot open file C:\TestFolder\Out\ for writing.
    Details: The system cannot find the path specified.
    But try with File Name and restart the host instance after the change.
    Or use somehting like this:
    FilePort(Microsoft.XLANGs.BaseTypes.Address)=@"file://C:\Test\Try\Out\\%MessageID%.xml";
    FilePort(Microsoft.XLANGs.BaseTypes.TransportType) = "File";
