Caption file importing at incorrect size (Premiere Pro 14.9 or earlier)

[brianb12360492]

I have a 1980x1020, when I import a .srt file it comes in as an 720x480 file.  How can I change this or correct this issue?

I had the same problem and after multiple calls and email with Adobe support I finally got this response:

SOLUTION. (Mine are .srt exported from YouTube)

Right click on the .srt in the media browser/timeline, Go > Modify > Interpret Footage. Click on the 'Captions' tab.

Whack up the 'video settings' MASSIVELY. This was 1920x1080 before.

All done. Nice big captions, and they're crisp. Adjust to suit.

Should have done screenshot inline - I put it up to 16384 x 9192
