Issue with Importing Subtitle Files in Newer Versions of Premiere Pro

Dear Adobe Support Team,

I am facing a major issue while importing subtitle files into the Premiere Pro timeline in the newer versions.

In the previous versions of Premiere Pro, when I imported a subtitle file, it appeared as a single file/track on the timeline. This made it very easy to sync the subtitles with the entire video timeline.

However, in the newer versions, the same subtitle file is being split into multiple subtitle clips on the timeline. Because of this, syncing the subtitles with the full timeline has become extremely difficult and time-consuming. It is almost impossible to move or adjust all the subtitle parts together smoothly.

This change has reduced usability and accessibility compared to the previous versions. The earlier workflow was much better and more practical for editors. I would like to understand why this change was implemented, as it feels like the testing or product team may not have considered real user workflow properly.

Please confirm whether this is a bug, a changed feature, or a setting that can be adjusted. Also, kindly let me know if there is a way to import subtitle files as a single track or single timeline item, like in the older versions of Premiere Pro.

I request Adobe to review this issue seriously and restore or provide an option for the previous subtitle import behavior, as the current method is creating major workflow problems.

Thank you.
