Export ignores "Captions" settings and ALWAYS burns captions in

[hellopaul4]

I have several sequences with subtitles (captions). If I have the captions track visible in my timeline, PPro ALWAYS exports the video with burnt-in captions, regardless of the "CAPTIONS" setting in the Export tab. The only way to export my sequence without captions is to disable th visibility of the captions track in my sequence (in the timeline).

@hellopaul4,

This has been reported in various versions, and I don't think I could ever replicate it.

What version of PR? You're in the Beta forum; be sure to report the build number.

Does it happen only if exported from PR or if queued to AME or both?

I'm on PPro beta 25.2.0x76. Interestingly, if I open that exact same project and export the same sequence in the release version of PPro (25.1.0 Build 73), I can turn the captions on and off in the Export tab and it works as expected.

Here's a screenshot from the beta version showing an export of a sequence (with no nested shots) with subtitles:

...and if I turn off Catpions, it's exactly the same:

The ONLY way I can export a "no subtitles" version is to turn off the Subtitle track:

(And why can't Adobe make up its mind whether it's "captions" or "subtitles"? It's SUBTITLES. Captions are not the same thing).

lol.

Captions on/off on export is working correctly me in build 71 on Win 10. I'll test when I next update Beta.
