Delete existing captions to replace entire transcript

The easiest way I found out after a lot of tinkering is that you can export an XML and reimport it. It will remove all the transcription done with in the Premiere Pro. 
BUT
Keep in mind if you have any effects or settings done which are associated with Premiere Pro will also be removed because XML doesn't record the built-in settings changes. 
For example: If you have interpreted your footage then those settings will not be exported with the XML. You will have to re do it.

I need help with a related issue. I am using Premiere ro gnerate SRTs and caption files, which are being used in a different platform. I typically generate the captions after having exported the video. However, I need to make changes and re-export the videos without captions. I can certainly hide the caption track and export that way, but I have so many sequences and doing this manually to each sequence is very time consuming. Is there a way to disable the caption track for the entire project temporarily while I export the videos? 

If you want to replace the transcript by retranscribing, just click the 3 dots in the transcript tab and pick retranscribe.

 

I'm trying to do this but the retranscribe link is greyed out.  This is one of the ways that I've been going about it.

• Select all transcription clips in the timeline
• Select the Transcript tab
• Select all of the the content in the Transcript panel (Ctrl A)
• Go to the 3 dots
• Re-transcribe is greyed out

I just type something, and I don't see it..... where did it go....

Hello.... I am new to FORUM..... I have no idea how to use this. or even if someone actually is reading this. But in my PREMIER PRO, in the 3 DOTS.... I see "Actions" "Export" (Export to text file, Export to CSV file, Export to SRT) PREFERENCES. Enable auto scrolling, spell check.... RIGHT CLICK nothing happens. I want to have subtitles in SPANISH. but when I go to Window > Text.... and then transcribe sequence.... it gives me everything in English.... Now, is in English.... and I can NOT , re do it in SPANISH..... is a "pain"...... can someone help me please...... 

Hi ... 
Short story:
    If somehow unlikely you created the transcript from the audio clip (and not sequence) -->
       Go to Timeline -> Right-click on the audio clip used for the transcript -> In the context menu search for IGNORE TRANSCRIPT. That option only appears in the "AUDIO CLIP" that was used in the transcript. (My video/audio was unlinked so maybe it also appears in the video clip if you have linked clips). 
       ***
       If the transcript was created from the whole sequence:
   
       So far, as commented in this thread, you can't delete it. But at least you can trim it. I hope that way it will not create so many markers if you work with the sequence in After Effects. 
       In the Sequence Timeline select a few seconds of IN-OUT (Mark In (shortcut: i) / Mark Out (shortcut: o).
        Then go to "Text Window" - three dots upper right (options) - Select "re-transcribe sequence" - > open "transcription preferences" and select "transcribe in point to out point only". Hope it helps in that situation.
        You can also "re-transcribe sequence" if you right-click the sequence in the Project window.

   
         Hope this help somehow.

Long Story:
       My problems: I work in English Premiere, and the videos I work with are in Spanish. I suppose by default the transcript is in the language set for the program.
      A few weeks back I used it for the first time, and... I was able to find a way to delete the whole English transcript and start again in Spanish! Funny thing: I can't remember how I did it that time ( I think I did the Re-transcribe option)

      Now, I went to another computer, and it happened again. I got an English transcript that I have to delete. 

      My solution to this issue: 

       *** Right-click, in the timeline, the track that was transcribed (not the sequence, but the audio track), and in the display menu select "ignore transcript". It only appears in the track/clip that was used for the transcript. Check both video and audio and check the different audio tracks. Search for that "ignore transcript" in the context menu because I never saw it until today I noticed it. 


See you around!

Yes... there is a trick.... u have to create one audio track or any existing track that track has a sfx audio.... thats it... Now just click the 3 dots in the transcript tab and pick retranscribe. thats it....

At the beginning I thought that I'm stupid or I'm to tired to find a simple way to delete captions and import new. Now I can't believe that I stuck in the midnight because such useful and powerful software don't have an option to change the imported captions in the project. Adobe what is happening to you, we gonna lose you if things gonna go this way
