Captions Assistance

[PhilLab]

Hi all!

I have a transcript (and captions track) with 5 speakers. The auto-transcribe has identifed the 5 speakers in the transcribe tab.

What I want to accomplish is to find a way for a preset or saved format to drag and drop onto the captions track - speaker 1 is green, speaker 2 is blue, etc. I also want to apply a zoom effect.

I can see there are "Track Presets" , but that applies to the whole track and not the individual segments, which would make life a bit easier.

Is there any way the caption segments can have preset styles applied to them in a drag and drop manner? Or some other solution?

Short answer: No. Only one style per caption track. No speaker functionality that is taken to the Caption track.

I'll try to find a feature request you can upvote.

A workaround is to convert the captions to graphics text. Or to use nesting to be able to apply other effects. See this thread for some discussion.
