    I know this has been written about many times, but I do not know any kind of programming or xml writing or what-have-you, and the posted threads haven’t helped me. My workflow for subtitling is the following:

    Working in Native HDV PAL in FCP 5.1.4. Translator lives in India, and our best solution to getting him video is to create small .mov’s with burned-in timecode, to be sent via file transfer protocol (rather than sending hardcopy dvds). He can then create a text file with timecode (which matches the burned-in source timecode) and the subtitles. But, then, I have to manually create subtitles one-by-one. Looking for a solution where I can just batch import all the subtitles from a text file, guessing I’d have to convert to XML language first.

    I downloaded XML2Text but I think this doesn’t help me, nor do I understand the help page or app very much in general.

    Also tried Subbits, but this app had many bugs and also didn’t seem to help me.
