In the previous version of Premiere Pro, I was able to add multiple captions and make them visible in order to have English/Spanish on screen. But in the latest version (Version 15.0.0) only one track of captioning is available.

This makes it hard for those of us who are working on making our videos accessible to multiple audiences. Please bring back the ability to have multiple tracks of captioning visible at the same time.

Two visible tracks would be best - We are responsible if we make the accident of burning both or not (as every decision in the program is our responsibility) but having the option of having both and choosing for one is better than removing the option altogether.
I would really love this feature!

Multiple speaker functionality would really help

Francis, we need this option immediately. This is really frustrating for videos with someone who switches two languages. Especially for us, the Japanese caption is vertical then English is horizontal obviously and the only one style can be used per caption track is quite maddening!!! WE WANT TO BURN MULTIPLE LANGUAGES simultaneously!!!!

Sorry, but it's a bug, just like an 'own goal' is a bug, not a feature. How the decision was made to remove this longtime capability raises a lot of questions. Equally, the fact that a year later it persists. As for our workflow, it has basically stopped us in our tracks for numerous projects.

Oh it would be so great to change at least subtitles to text layer that we can burn than in at that point where we need it. Have of lot of multilangual projects in which for showings different subtitles at the same time are needed. At least it would be a great option to allow more subtitles at the same time AND/OR make it possible to just move the subtitles from the subtitle track to normal text and let us do the rest.

hi this is SUPER problematic for me too - simultaneous translation is hella important and now my documentary can't be edit and it will be inaccessible to my audience.

Please enable multiple caption tracks. I need different styles for each track.

I need to be able to utilize different formatting preferences for different captions within one video. some of the captions in one graphic style, some in another. the fact that it's so difficult to do this is super frustrating.

It is ideal to have a color difference for different speakers and two tracks with subtitles to distinguish them.
