    Hello everyone.

    I’ve created subtitles for my 1080p25 FCP project in Belle Nuit. I’ve exported an XML and the image files and imported the XML into FCP. It’s all in place, the files are connected to the media files, but I don’t know how to make the subtitles appear like subtitles (stupid question? I’ve never done subtitles before..). i.e. the subtitle files seem to have a black background and I don’t know how to make them work. If I change the opacity the subtitles themselves disappear too, obviously. I don’t know how to formulate my problem any better, but I’m sure this is a one-click matter that I’m unaware of. Please help!

    Hi,

    I found this page:

    https://www.belle-nuit.com/subtitler/index.html

    The screen shot of Belle Nuit shows the controls for how the text will appear.

    My guesses would be:

    1. The text settings weren’t made when you created the subtitles.

    or

    2. There are settings that were not correct on export.

    or

    3. There is a problem with the import into your version of FCP.

    If you can elimination 1 and 2, I would call the Belle Nuit for support.
