Help me find a way to remove the gap between subtitles

@lucianf5540108  use https://en.editingtools.io/subtitles/. Turn on "minimum subtitle duration" and set it super high, like 1 minute. It will extend all caption Out Points to hit In Point of the next one. You just have to trim the last one in the timeline.

Or you can use Aegisub, which I really like for the Timing Post-Processor.

Should this be fixed natively inside Premiere? Absolutely. Upvote my feature request here:

lucian,

See this post where I discuss this topic:

Two additional thoughts.

I said Subtitle Edit wouldn't do this. In its tools, it does have a "Bridge gaps between subtitles..." and it has an option for using the preceding text to use the gap time. But the maximum gap it will operate on is only 2 seconds (2000 milliseconds). So it will remove all the gaps up to 2 seconds in length. But it leaves intact any gap of 2 seconds or more. If your gaps aren't too large, that will work.

Also,  PR now has "Upgrade Caption to Graphic," and, while they are no longer captions, this might give an option if you have a way to extend all clips to the next. I don't see it.

Edit: Corrected to remove the word "not." SE DOES have a "Bridge gaps between subtitles..."
