New Captions appear twice, can't remove one copy even after deleting Caption track.

[Phillip Harvey]

Anyone encountered this?

If I create captions with the new captions workflow, then I export an SRT, close my project and re-open it, I now have a second set of captions that are burned into the sequence. Even deleting the caption track doesn't get rid of it. I also tried deleting the SRT file from the hard drive.

I thought at first it was a Mac bug (I can't repro it on my Win 10 PC), but it  has also been reported by a Win 10 user. The "duplicate" is not burned in; you can't get rid of it.

Here's a bug report to upvote:

Thanks, Stan. This is on Windows 10. I will give that an upvote, thanks for the link.

I still need to try a prefs reset and reinstall to see if that helps. Been a bit too crunched the last few days, but I'll update if that helps out.

Just an update here: I was between projects so I did a prefs reset and so far that seems like it resolved the issue for me.

I thought one or more users tried that, but always a good step. I hope it sticks!
