Add SPEAKER names to captions

It's possible to add speaker names in Premiere Pro's backend but not in the caption track where it matters. 

This should have already been added in.

In my case, I have 6 speakers who talk over each other for a long time, so manual is not possible.

yash,

 

Upvoted.

 

Not long after the new caption workflow was introduced, I asked in the Beta forum what the longer-term plan was with Speaker names. It seemed apparent to me that a) there would be an option to put the speaker name as a label on the captions created from the transcription and b) that styling would provide a method for differentiating speakers on screen.

 

I can't find where the major uservoice request migrated here. This is the old request:

But this is a related one, addressing the larger issue:

I think this is the transferred request I could not find before:

I just spent an hour separating out the five speakers in my transcript. Then when I created the captions... the names were not included. I thought I missed a checkbox... but nope, it appears it was all for naught.
