SRT Files not importing into StoryLine3 consistently

I have a scene with 9 slides. Slide 1, when I import my SRT File shows my captions. However, none of the slides after the first one will show anything after I try importing them. It looks like it brings in the SRT File since the button under VIdeo Tools Option changes from "Import captions" to "Edit Captions" When I click on "Edit" Nothing shows up. 

 

I am using Storyline 3

    Figured this out and will write up what I did wrong. I filmed all of my teachings and edited them in Adobe Premier. I cut up all my teaching within one sequence leaving space to export out each slide. When I build my SRT/Captions in adobe, it uses the time codes of the timeline which doesn't line up when I import each video into separate slides. So I have to make sure each video/slide that I am exporting starts at time code 0:00:00 and that did the trick

    What tool are you using to generate your SRTs? I've run into the issue where, if the out-point of one block of text overlaps the in-point of the next block of text, neither appear.
