Nonzero Sequence Start Time Offsets SRT Timecodes

See this thread:

https://community.adobe.com/t5/premiere-pro-discussions/wrong-timecodes-when-exporting-srt-files-36-sec/td-p/12753511

 

I am surprised there are not more reports of this issue. I did not test for drop vs non-drop frame, nor different start times.

 

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a one clip sequence, transcribe, and create captions.

2. Export SRT.

3. Set Sequence start time (I used 10 hours)

4. Export SRT.

 

Result: SRT 1 starts at 00:00:01,200. SRT 2 starts at 10:00:26,976


Expected: SRT 2 should start at 10:00:01,200.

    Exactly the same issue here in the Premiere 2024.
    Apparently the timeline timecode offset contributes to the odd SRT output offset. This only affects the SRT export, as there's no added offset to the TXT or CSV export.

    In my case the timeline timecode starting from 00:59:55:00 results in 3s647ms offset in the SRT file.

    I've ended up on this page so many time over the past year starting from the thread by zecarpio.
    Really hope this gets fixed. Anytime a project requires deliverbles with a 2pop/slate/preroll of some kind and needs SRTs this adds an extra step for every single file delivered. I've begun making all deliverables out of resolve to avoid this mess.
