'Transcribe Sequence button not in 'Text' panel. Only 'Create captions from transcript'. V23.4.0

Hey there,

 

I'm having trouble creating captions with the speech-to-text function in Premiere.

 

I've created a timeline, selected my in and out points and even highlighted the audio track I want transcribed, but had no luck.

 

Everything I've read online says that in the 'text' panel it should be as simple as clicking the 'transcribe sequence' button, but there isn't one in my panel. Is this a new update thing? I had some luck by going into the 'transcript' tab of the text panel, selecting the '...' menu and doing a 'static transcript'. But, like I said, everything i'm reading says I should be seeing a 'transcribe sequence' button without having to mess around.

 

Am I going crazy or is this due to a new update?

Yes, it should be that simple. But it is easy to miss a step and then not see what you expect.

 

Try this.

 

Drag an untranscribed clip to the new icon, so you have a sequence with one clip. Now open the Text Panel -> Transcript Tab. (It actually should open automatically when you add an untranscribed clip to a sequence.)

 

Does it say "untranscribed clip" in sequence and have a Transcribe button toward the top?

 

If not, post a screenshot, preferably of the entire PR interface.
