Unable to change or edit speaker names in transcript

[Kevin Prange]

I am using Premiere Pro 22.6.2 (Build 2). I have Premiere transcribe a sequence and check the box for it to recognize different speakers. All good.

But when I click on the speaker in the transcription window, it does not allow me to change to another speaker. And when I choose to edit the speaker name, the same does not save.

I used to be able to do this and it's a great feature. Has anyone else had this problem? Is there a fix?

I had the same issues with switching/adding speakers. My fix was simple and random. Bottom left hand corner in transcrpit box, you can choose betwen three different text sizes. The defualt text size is the middle one so I randomly changed it to the smaller size and for some odd reason it allowed me to change/add speakers afterwards. Weird bug.

I'm still experiencing this issue on 23.0.0. Sometimes it works, most times it doesn't.
