No subtitles on export

TheKo

Halo,

Is there anyone who can help me with the following situation.

I aded subtitles to a sequence of 35 minutes and I saved to mp4 format but after exporting it, when I wanted to see the result the subtitles didn't show at all.

Can samone tell me why, please?

What version of VP are you using?
Did the subtitles appear when the project was previewed?
When you click the subtitle box do your S/T show up in this way...
i.e. Are they listed with their Show/Hide times in a similar way to the above?
When you select them does the preview on the right jump to the correct point in the sequence and show the selected S/T?

And, in the export box, is the Subtitle: OVERLAY choice shown? If it shows "hide" then the subs won't be seen.

Hi,

I am using the VideoPad Profesional version.

Yes the subt. apears when the project was previewed, the S/T shows up exactly as in your i.e. and olso in the

preview on the right jump to the correct point in the sequence and show the selected S/T.

The probleme might be with the overley to wich I didn't pay atention.

But what strange is that I tryed a fragment of 15 minutes and it worked. There might be something with the duration of the movie? I mean sequences biger then 15 or 20 minutes the program is unable to create them with the subtitles?

I wil try to verify the overlay.

I've just cheked if to the vertion that I have ( even if it is a Profetional one) it apears as you have shown me in you i.e. but to my vertion it doesn't apear the casette Subtitle, only Frame rate and Estimated time left.

Must I have to do some other setings?

Thenk you anyway.

Hi TheKo

The export screen should look like a bit like this in the latest PC version (8.42) ...

The Subtitle box (shown blue) should be set to Overlay Are you saying that your Export setting window does not show this box?

Hi TheKo

Thank you for the version number. I have checked this out and you are right; there is no Subtitle Overlay option...

I also tried a short clip with several S/T added to it . This played OK in the preview .......

.......but non of the S/T appeared in the exported clip.

This suggests that there is a problem in this regard with that version. I think there are two options open to you if this is the case..

Save your S/T as an SRT file. Download (or update) the latest version load your project then load the SRT file. This should enable you at least to complete the project with the original S/T. (Keep your original version exe and license etc somewhere safe and save your project beforehand.)
Re-write the subtitles as simple text images. These can then be added to the overlay track and adjusted in position.
