"Create captions" not working.

Community Beginner ,

Copied

The transcription process works great. As soon as I click the "Create Captions" button, I get the screen below, and it never changes. I can cancel it an go back to the transcription, but can not get any further. I've tried resetting my Premier settings, and resetting the workspace. I've even uninstalled and re-installed. Any assistance would be appreciated.

This is a bug report carried over from UserVoice, started July 26, 2021 (I think version 15.4, PR 2021). When posted here on 1/24/23, it had 36 votes. It was one of various bugs in different versions that shared a symptom of captions not being created from a transcript. From more recent comments in this thread, I am not sure what version users are running and which of the various bugs they are experiencing.

 

I could not replicate the original bug, but I believe that it was fixed in the PR 2022

Hello @Michael Garretson,

Thanks for the message. It’s been a long time since you filed this bug. I apologize for not seeing a resolution here yet. A product team member has responded but has not yet followed up. Are you still having this issue?

 

If so, the team might need more info from you to reproduce the bug. Can you provide the information required here? How do I write a bug report?

 

Likely, this was fixed in v.22, so I'll move your post to the Discussions board while we await your inform

Right there with you. I've had this same issue from the get-go. My co-worker who sits right next to me on the same machine hasn't had any issues, but I can't get past creating captions. Any help would be great.

Hi, I'm Quality Engineer at Adobe and want to investigate this issue further. Which Premiere version and which OS are you using? Are you trying to transcribe to English or to a different language?

Thanks,
Kerstin

I am using Adobe Premiere Pro Version 15.4.0 (Build 47) on Windows 10 enterprise version 20H2. The videos I am trying to transcribe are English. Premiere will create the correct transcript, but will not create the captions. I waited for an hour for a 3min video and captions were never created and status bar never moved.

If you see this happening again on your machine, could you please try the following:

1. Go to the Help menu -> "System Compatibility Report"
2. If reports are shown, go to "Export Report"
3. This should export 2 txt files, please share these with me

(More info on the System Compatibility Report can be found here: https://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/using/system-compatibility-report.html)

That's good to hear, Michael!

In case anyone else is still seeing this and is unable to create captions from a transcript, please follow the steps blow and provide a System Compatibility Report. This will help us investigate the issue further. Thanks!

Hi, here are the reports.
Once again, it was working with some versions of the PPRO Beta version and suddenly stopped working in the Beta and the official version. Since now even with the newest version, it doesn't create captions.

Same issue here. Premiere Pro v15.4.1 (Build 6). But while creating auto transcription the process stops whilst in the processing stage. The video/audio files are approximately 1hr in length.

I am experiencing the same thing. Windows 10. Premier 15.4.1 (Build 6). Reports attached. My video is only about 4 1/2 minutes, it creates the transcript, but when I click on the button to create subtitles, it gets hung up on the "Creating Captions" screen.

Thanks a lot for attaching the reports! This issue is tricky to reproduce so we're trying to gather as much information as possible when this occurs.

If you're getting stuck again during the caption creation process, please go to this folder:

on Mac:
Users//Library/Logs/Adobe/Premiere Pro 2021
or if you're on Beta: Users//Library/Logs/Adobe/Premiere Pro (Beta) 2021

on Win:
/users//AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Premiere Pro/Logs
or if you're using Beta: /users//AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Premiere Pro(Beta)/Logs

There you will find a file named "UXPLogs...date/time".log
This log file should contain useful information once caption creation has failed. Please share this log file with me so I can take a closer look.

Thank you!
Kerstin

Hi Christopher, I'm sorry to hear that! We're working hard to get that fixed.

Are you able to provide us with the UXP log (check my comment below your entry about how to find the UXP log file)? This can help us narrow down the cause of this.

Thanks,
Kerstin

Hello,
Here are some logs. My colleague tried and got a message that said "user not approved for cloud transcription usage" (I don't get this message, it just hangs). Could this be a firewall issue?
