How do you create closed captioning in Premiere 5.5?

I have a client that would like me to add closed captioning to his videos. I'm not sure how to do this. Could someone please tell me how?

Hi morenuts,
In Premiere Pro CS5.5, you can attach a closed captioning file and view it in the Program Monitor. Check out this video for details: http://tv.adobe.com/watch/short-and-suite/closed-captions-in-premiere-pro-cs55/
Thanks,

Create closed caption within Premiere Pro

Question: I'm using Premiere Pro 6 on a intel Xeon mac osx 10.8.3. I need to do captions for my project. I followed the Tutorial on "Create closed caption within Premiere Pro". When it comes to going to the window tab and selecting Captions.
Problem: in my copy of Premiere Pro 6 there isn't this option for selecting the captions buttton. How can this be resolved ?

That tutorial is talking about Premiere Pro CC, which doesn't come out until June 17th. The current CS6 version cannot actually create Closed Captioned files. You need to do that in a third party program for import into PP.

Creating Closed Caption in Premiere Pro Cs6

Hello,
I am trying to create Closed Caption from the scratch in Premiere Pro CS6. I watched couple of videos of internet.
But I dont see "Caption" menu and when I create a "New Item", it doesn't show me "caption" option to create new caption.
Where I can find Caption Menu to create new closed caption in Premiere Pro Cs6 ?
Thanks!

You have a few choices -- there are two commercial products that I have used and know about, to create sidecar closed captioning files that are usable in PPRO and follow industry standarads for CC: CPC (www.cpcweb.com) makes a authoring program called 'MacCaption' for MAC and 'Caption Maker' for WIN. Also, a German company (www.zeitanker.com) makes a program called 'Annotation Edit'.

How to create closed captioning in premiere

We have a series of short educational videos, and we need to add closed captioning subtitles.
Every set instructions says we need to import a .scc or .mcc file, but where do we create the file? How do we create the file?

See if this helps:

How do you enable closed captioning in the new Premiere Pro CC 2014?

I just upgraded to the latest version of Premiere Pro CC 2014... I can't seem to find a way to "enable" closed captioning!

Look for the wrench icon in the monitors, above the playback area, to the right. Tooltip for it is "Settings..." -- the menu item is in the flag menu there: Closed Captioning Display...

How do I import closed captions in Premiere Pro CC?

Now that Premiere Pro has close captioning we can import text as a layer in the timeline.
However, it only takes certain types of files. In the top video of this page: http://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/using/closed-captioning.html
Jeff Sengstack says that Premiere can accept 4 different file types for close captioning but he only mentions Scenarist.
I have my close captioning file in a .txt format but Premiere will not allow that type of file. So I have a couple questions:
1. What are the other file types that can be imported for close captioning?
2. Is there a way to convert a .txt file to a Scenarist format (scc)?

And here I thought I was giving you more info than you asked for, but fair point ;-)
So first of all, 608 and Teletext are different standards for encoding captions. In general, 608 is for NTSC (the video standard in the U.S., Japan, and several other countries), while Teletext goes with PAL (Europe, China, Australia, and elsewhere.) There are a number of differences between them. To learn more, you might start with this Wikipedia article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closed_captioninghttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closed_captioning.
As for how to convert your .txt file to one of the supported file types, I don't have a direct answer, but you might start by searching the Web for "captions convert txt to scc." I have limited experience with a few of the third-party captions authoring apps, which I expect can ingest a txt file and encode it in the given app's preferred flavor. On the 608 side, the ones I know of are CaptionMaker (for Win) and MacCaption (I'll let you guess which platform that's for). For Teletext, you might try Annotation Edit. Note that I'm merely listing the ones that I'm familiar with. I really don't know enough to recommend any of these programs.
One final note: The captioning features that we added to PPRO CC are geared toward providing a flexible workflow with imported captions--i.e., captions authored in some other program. PPRO CC now supports editing caption content (say to correct a typo or expunge swear words) and trimming caption track items just like any other assets.
You can also create synthetic caption assets and populate them from scratch, which could be handy for short projects or for filling holes in the imported caption sidecar. However, I would not recommend attempting to author all the captions for a project of any substantial length within Premiere. It's simply not designed for that, and there are dedicated programs that do this far better.

How do you create simple captions?

I've just been reading tutorials on how to create static and live captions based on metadata in CS5.5. This is more complicated than what I want to do.
I just want to select an image, write a caption specifically for that image, and have it appear below the image. Is that possible?

Sure. Just add a text frame, type your caption, and, if you like, group with the image. Completely static.

I'm trying to output captions on CC3 but it's not working. They're only showing up when set to CC1. I've done a lot of searching online and found nothing regarding this in Premiere, wondering if you can help?
The CC files are .scc, made with MovieCaptioner by SynchriMedia. I have a Blackmagic HD Extreme 3D card installed, and I've confirmed that the captions do not display on my external monitor as well unless it is set to CC1.
It seems like changing the CC channel in Premiere doesn't actually change which channel Premiere is encoding to. I've also found no info on if the channel of the CC is actually embedded in the .scc files. I have found through MacCaption's user manuals though that any caption file can be set to different channels through MacCaption's own encoder setting, which makes me believe the problem is in fact within Premiere not properly changing the channel.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks,
Jeremy

Does anyone else wonder why this video isn't captioned?

Can you do Closed Captioning on FCP HD

I have been using FCP to create a few TV programs and need to create closed captioning, but I can't seem to figure out if I can use FCP to generate closed captioning.
Anyone know how to create closed captioning in a FCP environment?
Thanks,
Wil

Wai a second. So my clients won't know the difference between subtitling and the closted captioning? Does subtitling run on line 21 as well?
<
Well, I've never met your clients but 90% of mine have no clue.
Subtitling is permanently burned into the image. Could be another language but could be the native or local language written out for the hard of hearing or to make poor audio intelligible.
Captioning (open/closed) is user-activated at the playback device. All TVs have CC switchable display. But there are several flavors of captioning including multiple language encoding.

No puedo visualizar subtítulos / Closed Caption en Premiere CC 2014

Hola a todos,
Hace dias que estoy intentando subtítular un vídeo utilizando closed caption en premiere cc 2014 (español) pero no consigo ver los subtítulos en el monitor. Solo puedo verlos si en settings los pongo en Teletexto 1, pero yo necesito hacerlos en CEA-608 CC1 y exportarlos en XML.
Cuando los hago en CEA-608 CC1 no hay manera de que pueda visualizarlos.
¿Me podeis ayudar?
Muchas gracias de antemano.
Saludos!

Hello there -- thank you for taking the time to comment here. Set the monitors to whatever closed caption standard you want to see.
1. Double-click on any caption or sidecar file to see what standard it is set to by reviewing it in the "Captions" panel.
2. In either monitor, go to the wrench icon, and click on it, go to the "Closed Captioning Display", and then set the display for closed captioning to match your closed caption sidecar or embedded file.
You should then see captions, in 608, 708, or Teletext -- if they are in the caption sidecar or file.
Take care!

How could you create 'Last Time Contacted' Smart Mailbox in Mail app Lion?

Hello!
For the purposes of maintaining regular contact with a large group of contacts in your address book:
How could you create a smart mailbox in the Mail App (Lion) which contained that last unique sent/received email from each individual contact?
So ideally just the last email per contact. For my purposes I would then sort by date and find the contacts I havent emailed in a while and re-initiate conversation.
I also thought that perhaps it would be possible through Automator? (I am not very familiar with how to use this app)
Any ideas/solutions would be very appreciated!

Okay, I think I just discoverd a workaround. This will work if you're lucky enough to already have a smart-mailbox folder that persists after close. (Somehow I had two such folders that already existed and weren't subject to the mysterious disappearances on closing the app; perhaps I created them in a previous OS X release?) Anyway, here goes:
Locate an already existing smart mailbox folder that's working properly. Select the folder (in the sidebar).
Duplicate that folder using the "Duplicate Smart Mailbox" Command. (It's on the contextual pop-up menu or available via the gear icon in the lower left of the window). This should produce and exact copy of the folder and the boxes inside, appearing at the bottom of the smart mailbox list.
Edit the duplicate folder to put the smart mailboxes you want in it, and delete the previous mailboxes (duplicates) that you don't want.
The new folder structure should now persist between launches of the app.
There you go. Not the most elegant process, but workable. Don't know if there's a method if you don't have at least one smart mailbox folder already though.

How to get embedded closed captioned videos to display captions in Acrobat?

I created closed captioned QuickTime videos using Premiere Pro CC. I then place them in an an InDesign document and set the Media parameters to show the little captioning icon (SkinOverPlayCaption). When I export to an EPUB (Fixed Layout), Apple's iBook (Mac OS and iOS) have no trouble presenting the closed captions (**very very sweet**).
**BUT** when I export as a PDF (Interactive), I get the embedded video with a the little captioning icon on the controller, but when I play the video I can't seem to get the captions to appear (either embedded, floating window, or full screen).
My client's Section 508 compliance officer isn't very happy. Can someone help me? Please?
Thanks!

Even after updating to v4.4, I still can't get closed captioning to work on Apple TV movies (not Netflix) I tried to press the up arrow button and then hold down the select button but I can only see the chapter list, not the cc menu. Closed captioning is enabled in the settings menu and the movies I rented all feature a cc option. Quite disappointing I would say and a big let down from Apple. This will make me think twice before renting any other movie.
