Can someone point me in the right direction here ? I would like to be able to convert the audio portion of a video clip to a close-captioned screen display.

Facebook videos do this very nicely. But this video may not go on Facebook.

Anyone have ideas?

Or even convert the audio to a text file ? I can then figure out how to display the scrolling text.

Thanks,

Clark

ok, i did some googling and found more than one way to convert a MP3 file to text.

Now to find a Text feature that easily allows that text to be timed and displayed as closed captioned text.

Hi,

PD does implement the standard subtitling format, either producing an .srt file from manually entered subtitles, or reading an .srt file and incorporating the subtitles into the timeline.

F12 will bring up the subtitle room.

When subtitles are present there is an extra timeline available below the SVRT timline where subtitles are displayed and can be adjusted.

Cheers
