Correct format for SRT files

Hey all, 

 

I'm using a third-party transcription service to do get some subtitles done on clips (Open AI's whisper, it works way better than premiere). 

 

How do I format the SRT file (I think i first have to create a .txt file) so that Premiere will be able to read it? I know one thing is that I need to have --> inbetween time stamps. Can someone give me the complete format? 


Thanks!

Fin

SRT looks like this:

 

1
00:00:05,042 --> 00:00:07,042
File 01 Caption 01

2
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:14,000
File 01 Caption 02

Fin,

 

Does the service not offer srt as a format option?

 

I'll post more info when I'm home. Enjoying a martini outside in this lovely spring weather!
