subtitle split idea

yeah hopefully they do, i know it sounds like such a micro thing, but i subtitle daily videos which can be 15 - 30 minutes long, which means doing these over a 30 minute long video can get very tedious 

It would be super helpful if Premiere had a feature to split merged words and automatically reposition them on the timeline. In the meantime, you can manually adjust by splitting the caption segment and moving the text boxes into the correct timing.

@oscar34478171xqjz,

Upvoted.

Upvote this feature request if you like it. I thought it might help the situation you describe, but it probably doesn't. I would try changing the max characters when creating the captions. But sometimes, adjustments like this are needed.

I think you re saying that Caption 1 ends with "scared", Caption 2 is "me I'm", and Caption 3 begins with "not gonna".

In the current PR, you edit Caption 1 (add "me"), edit Caption 3 (add "I'm"), and delete Caption 2. And probably edit both for timing. With the feature request I linked, you would split Caption 1 between the words (call them Caption 2A and 2B), then merge 1 and 2A and merge 2B and 3. Not really better.
