Hi Diana,
For the most seamless transition from one caption to the next, setting the end timestamp of caption 1 = the start timestamp of caption 2 (down to the hundredth of a second) will provide the best results. The larger the gap between captions, the more noticeable the transition will be, in terms of the captions' background boxes. You can experiment with variations in tenths, hundredths, or even full seconds between captions. It sounds like matching end timestamps to start timestamps exactly is going to be your best bet.
Hope that helps!

THANKS MAT! That's a H-U-G-E help. So happy to hear we can go to a hundredth of a second (our previous method didn't allow that). Oh, happy day!!
