Captions Won't Show Up

I have tried every single possible format for my captions, and they still won't show up in Quicktime, nor does the option to show captions in quicktime under the view tab.

I have embedded them, I have tried every type of sidecar file, I have burned them in, and I have tired both CEA-608 and CEA-708 with each of those format options.

I have posted this question in the quicktime forums as well, but if the burned in captions are not showing up, there is a problem with Adobe Premiere because they should be burned into the video, like a title or something similar. Wtf is going on?

    Have you tried queuing your sequence through Media Encoder?  If you do, make sure enable Import sequences natively is checked in AME Preferences.  What type of file are you exporting?  .Mov, mp4, ProRes?

    You can also check if your embedded file has captions by using a program like Media Info and see if the 608/708 shows as embedded in the exported file.
