adding closed caption
Can anyone help me with getting closed caption on my DVD. I am using CS4 and I have captured my digibeta tape into premere Pro, from there I exported it to encore to create the DVD. when I play back the DVD the closed caption is missing. I believe I need some additional files but i’m not sure of the process of how to add the files and exacly what files are needed.
Thanks

Please dont double post. I thought your question was answered in the DVD authoring forum? You’ll need to construct an .scc file with a captioning tool.

I recently completed an Encore project using sub titles for an SD project. I had an .scc file created for me by an outside souce from the final audio narration track for use in Closed Captioning. I was unable to edit the file to properly time the text with audio – it was way off. I switched to a Sub Title file provided by the same company and was able to move portions of the text right in Encore so the timing was satisfactory. The disc master burned correctly without a problem.
However, when I tried using the same Sub Title file in a BluRay version of the exact same project, I continually received error messages shortly after initiating the build command. Finally gave up on providing subtitles for the BluRay version. Good Luck!
