How do I apply captions/subtitles to my video project?

Adding subtitles or captions to my timeline in premiere has not been easy. I called adobe and they said 'premiere pro does not support subtitles and even if you add captions, it will only play in VLC media player'.
I've seen youtube tutorials on how to apply captions by downloading subtitle software, yet every time I download these softwares and make timed subtitles adobe won't let me import them.
Can anyone please help me? For such a simple effect that you can use in FCP7 Premiere make it bloody difficult!

When you refer to "captions' I take it that you mean "Closed Captions" -- this is text that is in a data stream, and not part of the frame/ video.
It is very straightforward to adding Closed Captions to projects in Premiere Pro. You don't have to download anything.
Try this out -- it has all the information you need to get started: Adobe Premiere Pro Help | Closed Captioning
When you refer to "subtitles' I take it that you mean "Open Captions" -- this is text that is 'burned in', or part of the frame/ video.
Premiere Pro does not support Open Captions at this time.
Thanks for posting here and good luck!

  • How do I remove the sound from a video project and replace with music...?

    Hi there to all...I would like to know how you remove the original sound from a movie (using iMovie) so you dont hear it through any music added...?

    Select the video clip and open the clip inspector to the video tab. You can set the volume slider to zero.
    You can apply this to a bunch of clips at once.
    Do the first one.
    Then Edit/Copy.
    Then Select the clips to apply it to by select while holding command key. (or EDIT/SELECT ALL to get all clips)
    Then EDIT/PASTE ADJUSTMENTS/AUDIO ADJUSTMENTS

  • How to get photos show up in a video project?

    Hi! I'm trying to import photos from a Canon Powershot SX210 IS into a movie project. I first imported the photos into iPhoto library and photos show up in the project, then I drag and drop then into the project timeline but once I play the video project it only shows black instead of the videos. What do I have to do? Do the photos have to be in certain file format / certain size? Now the photos are raw 14 megapixel monsters. Thanks for help!

    I have the same problem and it's not just when I input photos but even when I add a transition at the beginning of the show.

  • Slideshow export - how to fit it in 720 X 576 video project?

    I want to use a slideshow in my video in fcpx - I try to export it to 720 X 576, which are my video settings, but it doesnt work. Aperture just overrides my resolution. What should I do?

    Thanks. Yes, I need to downscale it, but the problem is that Adobe Premiere probably doesn't have the best codecs to downscale and retain best quality available. That's why I found so many tutorials online using 10 programs at the same time to do it. What I am finding harder to do is to convert from 16:9 to 4:3. Once I have my 4:3 HD footage I can then use one of those tutorials to downscale it to best quality I can have. Do you agree? Or is it better to just do it in Premiere? I really want to letterbox it, I don't want to pan and scan. I want my video to be presented in scope.
    Thanks

    By law, broadcast TV shows are required to have Closed Captioning. Up to and until the iTunes Store offers its shows complete with CC, I will not purchase any. It should be criminal that CC is not offered on every available video.

  • How do I apply programmatic skins for completely custom drawn components of a Flex library project?

    Hello folks,
    I am looking for best practices advice when (1) creating
    custom components and (2) styling and skinning.
    I already know how to skin a component part of the Flex
    framework. I can make a class extending ProgrammaticSkin and have
    my component skinned using CSS to link the component with the
    reference to my custom class.
    However what about those cases when you are completely
    creating a component from scratch?
    Imagine a "Freehand Drawing Canvas" component that allows the
    user to draw on it and has some buttons to set color styles, line
    styles, etc., or imagine a "Screen Flow Gallery" component that
    displays visual objects in a fashion similar to Cover Flow in the
    Mac.
    In many components I am aware you may reuse other components
    part of the Flex framework but I am trying to picture an scenario
    where you would need to draw everything yourself because there just
    isn't something to base it upon so you will end up drawing it from
    scratch.
    To learn how instead of building one of those components I
    mentioned previously I decided to start with something simple that
    would illustrate this like a LiteButton component that will behave
    just like the Flex mx.controls.Button but will extend UIComponent
    and be completely custom drawn.
    The component will have a default look and will also be
    style-able and skin-able. I will provide styles for users of the
    component to modify and regarding skinning anyone can create a
    custom ProgrammaticSkin adding its own drawing logic and link it to
    the component via CSS with the ClassReference applied to the skin
    selector.
    So far so good and it's clear what I want to achieve. I
    actually know how to do most of the stuff here but I have one
    single problem.
    Here is my question, where should I put my custom drawing
    logic? If I do it in the updateDisplayList inside the class
    extending UIComponent it works, however I thought that it would be
    a better practice to do it using programmatic skins, that way I
    could provide different skin themes for my component set.
    The problem is that I can't make the programmatic work in
    this scenario. I tried instantiating the custom programmatic skin
    during the updateDisplayList of the LiteButton component and adding
    it to my display object via addChild but that didn't do anything. I
    also tried creating a "default.css" stylesheet and tried to use
    ClassReference as I would normally do to skin an already existing
    component (or composite component as well) but that didn't do
    anything either.
    So how do I apply programmatic skins for completely custom
    drawn components of my Flex library project?
    I could do it inside the updateDisplayList of the LiteButton
    class extending UIComponent but again I would like to provide
    different theme sets for my components so it makes sense using
    programmatic skins.

    These aren't mutually exclusive. When you provide a skin with
    a
    TypeSelector, you have to add it to the display list
    somewhere, and this is
    typically done in updateDisplayList or addChildren. I prefer
    to do it in
    updateDisplayList, because you can then change it if the
    style changes.

    Exactly what did you do?

    I've never had any problem using an approach similar to
    this...but I will
    say that I couldn't see any advantage in creating a
    default.css style sheet,
    since it's not really default in the way that the one that
    comes with Flex
    is. It's much more obvious to anyone using your component
    what's going on
    there if you create a style sheet where they're likely to
    spot it.

    It seems like your approach is fine, but maybe you've made a
    mistake in your
    implementation.

    You might want to consider also adding an instance of
    HaloBorder to your
    component. That brings a lot of functionality with it.

  • How do you apply the same password policy to every PDF document you create with inDesign?

    All,
    Adobe peeps!,
    I don't know if this is really supported with inDesign 5.5, but here is my my use case:
    I constantly create more than 10 PDFs a day using inDesign
    On  all PDF's I create, i want to apply password security to protect them
    But in order to do so, within inDesign, I am   always forced to go to the "security dialogue" pane to set up the same permission  and passwords over and over again
    This gets tiring :/
    So what I am hoping to do is  the following:
    Like acrobat, I want to create a password policy within inDesign
    I want all PDFs created to have such a password policy  be automatically applied
    I know acrobat supports something like this (http://help.adobe.com/en_US/acrobat/pro/using/WS58a04a822e3e50102bd615109794195ff-7d68.w.h tml), but, unless I may have missed something, the Acrobat feature is limited. That is, the help link  does not tell me how to automatically do this with Acrobat either (the link does not explain to me how to "automatically apply the same password security policy to every PDF document I save within the application). I think the only way to do so is via "Adobe LiveCycle Rights Management ES", but for non server users, I am hoping there is another way.
    So my questions are:
    Is it possible to create password security policies in inDesign?
    Is it possible to apply the same password security policy to every PDF i create in inDesign?
    If not, can I change default settings within Acrobat ProX to automatically apply a password security policy everytime I save a PDF?
    If all fails, do you guys know of any extensions that can support this?
    Any help would be great. Thanks!

    Steve,
    Thanks for your notes. To follow up on your response.
    Bummer. I kinda had a hunch at this inDesign limitation.
    I have been aware of the method for setting up of a security policy within Acrobat. While this feature does cut down some of the work involved in creating and applying password policies to pdfs, what I am looking for with Acrobat is to apply the same password policy to every document I save from the app. Automatically. Without having to manualy select a policy.
    I think my solution will have to lie in me creating some sort of script to help support this need. I don't think Acrobat Pro X has the capabilities to allow me to tinker with, say, creating a save PDF preset that will allow me to automatically apply a password policy.
    PS. I am using acrobat pro x.

    How do you apply a master page to multiple documents at the same time?

    Hi friends,
    Thank you for trying to help me out.
    Let me explain it a bit to remove the ambiguity.
    I have 10 documents nested under a book. Each of these documents have 'n' number of pages. I want to apply my custom made master page "First" to the first page of all these 10 documents in one go. The remaining pages of the documents have to be in default "Right" master page format. How will I do it?
    I tried selecting all the documents and importing the formats from another document with the custom made "First" master page. The master page format is getting imported but the first page of all the documents still remain with the default "Right" master page format.
    I think now my question is more clear...
