Increase number of tracked speakers in transcription

[DGradilla]

Title says it. Currently only 12 speakers can be tracked, then any additional speakers are stacked on top of speakers 1, 2, 3, 4 at intervals of 10 speakers each. For feature length documetnaries where you may have way more speakers than that , it would be great to expand the number of speakers that are able to be tracked for script tracking and revisions.

I had no idea!

Can you post a screenshot? I don't have a sample that will generate that many speakers. Stacked  how?

I assume this applies whether you are naming the speakers or not.

I've already gone through and relabelled, but in a nutshell if i have 30 speakers, the way that premiere will do the transcript is it'll track Speakers 1-12 (albeit not in order which is funny), then when it hits speaker 13, their transcript will be labelled speaker 1. and it'll do that until there's about 10 independent speakers under the speaker 1 label, then it'll move to speaker 2, and so on. It'll be consistent with the speakers its folding into the labels, so it is tracking the speakers properly, its just not breaking them out into independent speakers. So if you need to visualize, it'll be as below:

Speaker 1 - Speakers 1, 13, 14, 15 ,16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21

Speaker 2 - Speakers 2, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30

Speaker 3 - Speaker 3

Speaker 4 - Speaker 4

Speaker 5 - Speaker 5

Speaker 6 - Speaker 6

Speaker 7 - Speaker 7

Speaker 8 - Speaker 8

Speaker 9 - Speaker 9

Speaker 10 - Speaker 10

Speaker 11 - Speaker 11

Speaker 12 - Speaker 12

And to add additional conext, i can still break out the lines and give them independent labels, but it's just a whole manual process that would be better if the speakers were broken out then all i have to do is merge any errant words or do spot relabels.

Thanks! Upvoted.
