Can not import SRT files to Premiere Pro beta v25.6.0 builds 101,102, drops a generic error message! 

 

I have an extension called Kaps, that generates captions for videos. 

BTW that is quite indifferent. 

The thing: 1st I thought it's failure of Kaps, but no.  I tried with caption files and got the very same error. 

 

So I saved the SRT in

- ANSI

- UTF8

- UTF8-BOM

- UTF16-BE-BOM

- UTF16-LE-BOM

encodings, but none of them can be importd in the Premiere Pro project.

 

The error message says: "The importer reported a generic error." (see the attached screenshot). 😞

I just tested this with an existing srt, works fine.

I dragged the srt file from explore direct in project panel.

After that I could drag it in a timeline.

file setting srt  Windows CRLF  UTF-8 with BOM

Thank you for your feedback - just for clarification - did the import of these SRT files work in any other previous version?

Would it be possible to provide the SRT or samples like the first few lines to us to reproduce the problem?
