Automatic Import of Closed Captions for Media - Not working as expected
Hey team
We are producing _a lot_ of modules at the moment and each has closed captions with sound.
The documentation says that if we named our closed caption (.srt) files with the same name as ...
Hi - I'm having the same issue as all of the comments above. I initially had .SRT files named to match the accompanying video .MP4 files and no captioning automatically imported.
I then tried to manually import the Captions, as mentioned above - still didn't work.
The caption files were originally created with a text editor (Notepad), then imported to Davinci Resolve, where I edited both the video and caption content as required. I then exported .MP4 and .SRT content from DaVinci and tried to insert the files into Storyline - without success on the caption side of things.
Storyline does recognise that something is there, in terms of the Captions: although nothing is viewable on screen (either when editing, previewing or in published format) - if I try and import again, Storyline warns me that I will overwrite the existing captions (which are not visible!) - so it recognises that there is content present. It just won't display the caption content in any screen.
Help!
