Not really possible anymore – as far as I know – in 10.3.
In older versions you had the themes section which allowed to sort and search all kinds of templates without changing the installation path.

Nice idea to use the lib as plugin installer !

It’s a bug.
Please report – the more people report the better the hope for a fix.

P.S.
One nice thing though now you can assign any title template as default for Lower 3rd or Text.

Thanks Richard for publishing the details of you problem.

I said earlier in this thread that the time difference is the difference caused by 23.976 and 24 fps.
Could you send me an XML from Premiere that causes the trouble in Resolve. There might be a chance to create a XML fix for Mac.

Quicktime says the Last Frame TC = 15:41:41:00
Premiere says the Last Frame TC = 15:40:44:13

That’s now a difference of 56sec and 9-frames
A change of 4 frames in roughly 3-1/4 minutes.

If we were in NTSC (30fps/60i) I’d think Dropframe vs Non-Drop Frame, but there is no DropFrame in 24p (23.976)

That’s the difference between 23.976 and 24

I forgot Switch. I haven’t tried it, but it would be worth to try – seems there is a demo available.

Unfortunately I can’t help with a company recommendation since I’m in Europe and those I know here normally don’t work with US CEA-60X.

Hello Chad,

Yes it’s odd that Apple and 3PlayMedia describe that workflow as recommend.
In some cases it is working in other cases it’s not working – it depends on the broadcaster.

Technically Apple solutions cannot interleave subtitle informations into the MPEG2 stream. Some people would they can, but as I worked with/and for HPA (the company Apple bought for their MXF/MPEG solutions)I know that the Apple solution only supports Audio/Video.

I’m no sure whether Episode would supply a “real” caption-audio-video solution. For what I know you need MacCaption.

Regards
Andreas

This workflow won’t embed the captions into the MPEG signal. It will just add it like a side car file.
You will need a Telestream app. PPro might be an option as well, but there are many reports about not working results.
An external service provider probably is the best way to go.

Bret I don’t think it’s too complicated.
Just select the tracks/lanes you need, press ctrl-D enter a time, go to the desired time press cmd-B. Then select the ends and delete them.

Hi Michael,

Your approach is wrong – you use the wrong kind of subtitle.
There are several subtitle plugs available. There is one from Digital Heaven called Subtitle-X ( around 40 Euro), one from Simon Ubsdell TKY Subtitle and one from me TextUp Box. Latter 2 are free.
All of them create a box behind the text. Subtitle-X offers more options for the kind and handling of these boxes.

Working with any of them frees you from the trouble you describe.
