  • captions in .wmv file problem

    Posted by Mary Waitrovich on September 7, 2005 at 8:52 pm

    I’m using Vegas 6.0b and put captions in via command TXT markers. When playing the file in the Windows Media Player, there is a flash of white in the captions area just before the first caption appears. This happens whether I put the first command marker at the very beginning or in a bit on the timeline.
    Here is a link to the test file:
    mms://winstreamer.doit.wisc.edu/doit-pte/Recruit3wcaptions.wmv

    Does anyone have any thoughts about this? It never happened before in numerous captioned .wmv files.

    Thanks,

    Post a link to the WMV file, not streamed, so that one may see it frame by frame.

    The file can be accessed from this link:
    https://mywebspace.wisc.edu/xythoswfs/webui/_xy-3487053_1-t_DSDvGGD7

    When the page appears, choose save to disk and the file will download – it’s about 5 Mb.

    Thanks for your help.

    I’m not seeing it. I looked on two viewers including Windows Media Player, and on Vegas one frame at a time.

    Very good piece of work, by the way.
