Please add caption embedding for mpeg2 files!

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...

Please add embedding captions to mpeg 2 with PP or ME. Every show I do requires it. Why is the ability to put captions on the timeline if we can't use it.

Wait, it's 2021 and this still isn't possible?

We need to be able to embed cc files into an MPEG-2 immediately. Adobe would be a 10 out of 10 if this happens.

Please add mpeg2 caption embedding. This is crazy that a 2020 professional editing program can not do this.

This is a huge problem for us doing broadcast programs. Most TV stations require mpeg2 files. Adobe, please add this feature ASAP! THANKS!!

Seems like this shouldn't be that big of a deal

I edit a weekly broadcast that airs in 6 different markets. All of a sudden 2 of the markets are saying the formats that export from Premiere with CC embedded will not work with their system. They are requesting mpeg2 files.
Unless I find another solution I will have to special edit 2 of six markets each week on a mac with Compressor. Stupid.

Agreed, Its a pain that i cannot embed 608/708 captions into mpeg-2 files... This would be extremely helpful... even apple compressor does this.
