  Why do subtitles bounce on playback?

  Posted by Noam Osband on April 4, 2014 at 3:51 am

  Sometimes, if I play with subtitles, when I play them back in the canvas, they might bounce around or seem to jump from one spot to the other.

  But when I export the sequence they are not doing that and instead they are static like they should be.

  Why does it get a bit janky on playback? It’s annoying cause I think there is a problem and then I need to export a small movie file to discover there is not.

  Thought?

  thanks in advance,
  noam

  what subtitle generator are you using?

  i have noticed this with Text Up Pro.
  sometimes if the underlying clip has a motion effect, the sub jumps up a few lines.

  solution is to render.

  Yeah, I’m totally using that text generator.

  Good to know! Thanks for the quick and useful answer!
