Hello everyone,

I am having this issue with Open Caption that I can see them been edited in the thumbnail of the Open Captions Window but they just will not edit in the main Sequence output.

Please Help

I am having a simular problem, I'm a newbe. I was able to put several open caption items on the timeline, then I got a redline on top, looked it up and it said to render, so I did, now I cannot edit the captions nor add any new one's? Help.

I recently went through this kludgy behavior, think I responded in another thread here on the forum...

Try giving your Premiere program and/or machine an enema - Restart. When I quit out of Premiere and opened file again the captions magically were editable. Make sure it's an .srt file for your captions.

Also helps to post screengrabs of your issue for other experts here far beyond my skills who can respond.

It happens for no reason I can find. Several threads, one with a list of workarounds to try. Can't find the link until tomorrow. One is to save project, close, and reopen.

Thanks for the help, already tried closing the project and re opening it, also downgraded to an older version and tried and nothing. Will be looking out to see if you post the link to the thread.
