mpeg2 is a standard delivery format for several television stations we deliver paid programs to. It is presently a pain to get those particular files encoded with captions and I am going to look at other NLE options if Adobe doesn't get on the ball and add this soon...

@default08amxr2rjd8o,

 

The reason all the posts in this thread have the same (1/24/23) date is that is the date this feature request was ported to the new Ideas forum. So as you can see, no posts since.

 

There are a couple other threads, but I do not see a method for using a third party option to embed in mpeg. Anyone?

At the least, you should warn people that their subtitles will not be imported/exported if you don't support this. Silent failure can lead to confusions!

I found a 3rd party plugin to export .mp2 files with embedded captions but they want $1600 for it. That is a CRAZY price when Adobe should include this option. Come on, Adobe. Help us out, please!

This is a CRITICAL FEATURE THAT IS NEEDED NOW!!! It is unbelievable that Adobe does not have this ability. I send out several 30 min shows and 200 commercials a month and EVERY STATION needs embedded mp2 files for broadcast.
