The editing box is not resizable, and there was an issue in transcript editing regarding the size of the text in editing mode vs viewing when setting the slider to large font.   I am on Win 11 testing in 25.4.0, and no combination of font slider, single line vs double line made any difference for me.   @Kaze5E53,   I don't recall any other reports of this.

@isabellep75539520,   I don't recall other reports of this once the feature was in the release versions. There was one report during discussion in the Beta testing, but the transcription always completed the same amount of the total. Your amount varies.   This is a cloud-based process. If you do not have internet at the beginning, the "translate" button is greyed out. If the internet connection is interrupted partway through, I get a "We're having trouble connecting" and "Can't complete" in the translated track, with no captions at all. I wonder if internet connection quality or similar could have any effect.   @Vaibhavi Jani Any thoughts?   Stan           ... View more

@dp visuals,   I'm thinking the answer is "no." But let's do a little brain-storming, even if it helps for the next time.....   If  you look in the history panel, you'll see that if you use the bulk options (Delete all), history only gives you a single undo - (e.g. "Extract 19 range(s)"). If you deleted them one at a time, you get individual undos (e.g. "Extract 1 range(s)") multiple times. But to keep your further work, any undo you make will also undo your other work.   Is there a way to duplicate that sequence and not undo it when you go back? I'm not sure.   Do you have a duplicate of the sequence at an earlier stage? Remember that deletion of filler words, etc, is at the sequence stage. Your source transcripts are still intact. If you think it is only a few "uhms" to put back, just run through that old sequence, find them, and copy them in.   Or you might go to a backup of your project.   I would certainly make a known good backup of your current project before you start changing anything.   Now that I see it,  however, here's what I'd do. Check all the edits, or guess at places where you think you might want to reinstate a filler word. These are edits of the SAME clip/file, correct? On the segment AFTER the cut, go to the first frame and place a clip marker. You only need that if you are going to make a change, so you can skip that if you make very few changes. Now place the playhead a few seconds before the cut. Double-click on the segment BEFORE the cut. It opens in the Source Monitor (match frame) and when you play the Source Monitor, it will continue and you'll hear the filler deletion. If you want to include it, make a little space in the timeline, go to the marker you just made in the Source Monitor and set a new outpoint. Close the gap.   There's got to be a better way to make those edits, but you get the idea. And, of course, it would be challenging in a timeline that is already complex with many other tracks.   Stan       ... View more

@Takeone.Digital,   Matt points to the new and powerful option for getting existing transcripts into the text-based editing workflow. Note that you can install the Beta, import your text, export the PR formatted .prtranscript file, and import that into the Release version of PR - latest 25.4.0, but any of the recent ones will take that PR transcript. So using the Beta to get your transcript does not mean switching to the Beta for your whole project.   My method before this was to create a nonsense transcript (let PR transcribe the spoken Hebrew into English) - it gives timecodes for "words." In your srt, remove all the timecodes and formatting, so you have a single paragraph with NO line breaks and one space between each sentence. One return at the end. Since you've created a transcript in PR, you can Import "as corrected." PR will happily use your words with its timecodes.   I have not tried that with Hebrew, and some languages did not work well. Let me know if you want me to give this a whirl. I'd just need a short audio clip and the Hebrew translation to go with it.   I used Notepad++ for the conversion, but other users have done similar things with ChatGPT or equivalent.   @mattchristensen,  I downloaded LM Studio to give the new workflow a try with a free LLM, but it is daunting for those of us who are not actively playing with such scripts. Is there a tutorial for this new option?   Stan   ... View more

@Wave Digital Arts,   I can confirm this is fixed in the Beta.   Here's the bug report where it was reported in PR 25.3.0: https://community.adobe.com/t5/premiere-pro-bugs/font-size-of-captions-changes-while-editing/idi-p/15395533   It was okay in 25.2.3. Unfortunately, it did not get fixed in the new 25.4.0.   @Alexander_DVA, I noticed some edit boxes being too small to show all the text, and was reminded of this post: https://community.adobe.com/t5/premiere-pro-discussions/when-editing-caption-transcript-the-box-is-smaller-than-the-text-so-the-last-line-is-cut-off/m-p/13919111#M520898   It might have been improved, but still makes editing awkward.   Stan   ...

I tested today in current release 25.4.0, Beta 25.6.0.31, and 24.6.5. The status of this request is the same: when you split a caption, it duplicates the entire caption text in both segments that result from the split.   I'm posting this primarily to give my observations about the timecode split below. But I realized that part of the challenge of making this change is in automating where to split the text. Once the captions are created from the transcript, there is no longer word precise timing information. So a rule is needed (x percent of the text based on time, or characters per second, or whatever). Or the user must identify the split point, for example, execute the split from the text panel, which requires entering edit mode to show the word where the split should occur. But any of those methods require checking the point the spoken word actually occurs.   My description of the timecode where the split occurs was incomplete.   In the Text panel/captions tab, the selected caption segment is split in the middle when you use the split button or the “Split Caption” (text panel) shortcut.   In the timeline, the caption is split at the playhead, whether the caption is selected or not, if you click the split button in the Captions tab (even if a different caption is selected there) or you use the (unassigned by default) application shortcut to “Split Caption Segment Under Playhead.”   However, if you try to split a caption in the timeline so that one of the resulting segments would be less than about one second, it splits it in the middle.   Stan   ...

@Gauher_Jaan3978,   Thanks for posting. You have a split caption segment, and are trying to edit the (same) text in each segment. The drag-select does not appear to be working correctly.

I tested in 24.6.5, 25.4.0, and Beta 25.6.0.31.   BTW, if you do check back, consider upvoting this feature request that might make that editing easier: https://community.adobe.com/t5/premiere-pro-ideas/split-caption-at-text-under-playhead/idi-p/14088062   Stan       ...

@jspool420,   Over many years, users have reported oddities regarding the start point of embedded captions and .scc files. I simply don't understand enough about the technical issues to sort it out. But I cannot replicate your current description. I'll report my results below. I have some questions to help pursue this further.   > When closed captioning videos in Premiere. If I select the option to embed the captions in the video  What export format are you using?   > there is a roughly 30 frame delay from the start of the videos that the captions actually appear in the video. How are you testing that?   > My caption track is set to CEA-608. I've tried using multiple formats for the caption files. .mcc, .srt, .scc. How are you creating your caption track? I don't understand what you mean by using multiple formats. Are you importing the captions? Are you changing the start time of the sequence?   > a slated track Sorry; I don't understand that. How do you set that up?   I tested on Win 11 and PR 25.4.0. I do not believe there has been any change in the timecode issues for the embedding process for many versions. But I do not know that for a fact.   My test video is 29.97 drop frame, duration 00;02;37;13. I created 608 subtitles from a PR transcript, using defaults. The first caption is at 00;00;01;02. The timing of the captions is good.   File -> Export -> Caption as SCC. Reimport using Source timecode as start; Exact match.   However, the actual timecode when viewed in Notepad++ is 00:00:00;12 and in Subtitle Edit 00:00:00.500. All captions appear to be offset by that same amount. In SE, synchronization is off, and can be adjusted using Synchronization -> Adjust all lines, Show later 667 milliseconds. But that could be a limitation of SE.   Now export QuickTime with embedded captions. Reimport to PR (be sure Edit -> Preferences -> Media has "Import captions" checked); perfect alignment compared to original timecodes. Playback in Telestream Switch 5.0; timing is correct. I use the free version, so I cannot see the decoded words, but the appearance/timing of the captions is there.   Stan     ... View more

I moved a text box around, and got correct snapping at the guides and the standard mid points. I didn't see any differences when I switched to full screen. I'm in the default Captions and Graphics workspace.   3 - That is a familiar symptom from a variety of previous versions - text entry (from first or second or third keypress) exits entry mode and executes a keyboard shortcut (or types and executes shortcut).

@Olga_B5414,   Yes, there is an old, long, and confusing thread from the past. It is confusing because a) I think there was a bug that was solved (probably prior to version 24.2) and b) the testing method sometimes led users to think captions were burned in when they were not (VLC player for example may see a previously exported srt and show the captions).   What version are you using? (Release 25.4.0 just came out.)   Mac (version?) vs PC?   Do you have linked AE comps in your sequence?   As a test, I recommend reimporting the file to PR - are the captions burned in?   In PR export settings with the Captions setting as None or Sidecar, before exporting, look at the preview window. Are the captions visible? If so, they will burn in.   You have done this one: Disable the captions (turn off visibility with the eyeball in the caption track header), and confirm that they do not burn in.   Are you using a custom export preset?   Is there any difference if you send to AME vs export directly from PR?   What is the caption format (Subtitle/608/etc), the export format (H.264/mxf/etc), and what export settings (Other than burn-in) result in the captions burning in (embed/sidecar/none).   Stan   ...

@DemSign,   Agreed; speaker identification needs work.   To edit speakers and to use split and merge operations on transcripts, you must do that in the Source transcript view. Also, your "Unknown" speaker means that you did not use the "Yes, separate speaker" option when you create that transcription.   If I have multiple speakers in one clip, I edit the names so I know who it is. When you bring multiple clips into your sequence, the names still show. If there are misidentification and multiple clips, I might name the potentially confusing reference by name and clip. For example, if there is a clip that is all John, except for a few comments by Joe, I might name the Joe speaker there "Joe in John."   See my post here for the current merge/split behaviors: https://community.adobe.com/t5/premiere-pro-discussions/merge-captions-suddenly-gray-and-unlcikable/m-p/13891108#M525746   Stan   ...

@DemSign,   Thanks; got it. And I can confirm that PASTING an apostrophe (curly single quote) into the transcript works. Typing into the text entry (even with smart quotes turned on in preferences) or the Replace box do not. And, even if we got import corrected working for you, PR converts smart quotes to uneducated upon import.    But I think the following works. Enter an apostrophe into the Search box in the transcript. PASTE your apostrophe into the Replace box. Replace all. I note that PR's caption creation will use the straight or curly apostrophe whether the smart quotes preference is on or not.   My other thought was to wait until caption creation to make the correction. If the transcript creates straight apostrophe captions, use Search/Replace. But again, you must PASTE the correct apostrophe character, or it won't create smart quotes even with the preference set for smart quotes.   Edit to add: I recognize that you may need to use your current workflow for grammar correction or other reasons.   Stan   ...

@Det Scholz,   I cannot replicate. BUT I did get very odd Beta results.   I was addressing a regular forum question where the user was not getting good results with export/reimport: https://community.adobe.com/t5/premiere-pro-ideas/please-let-me-export-and-reimport-transcripts/idi-p/15456142   This has been working as designed, but I had not tested for a bit. Your post got my attention. I tested first in Release 25.3.0, since my Beta is at 25.6.0.24. Release 25.4.0 has dropped, but not available to me yet.   In 25.3.0, I can export .txt, and can successfully reimport: no change, change one word, and adding a bunch to one segment. I can also successfully import the whole transcript as one paragraph - remove all speakers, timecodes, line endings, so you have one big paragraph of sentences and a single return at the end.   In Beta 25.6.0.24, I could not export any transcript version - just silent fails. But I suspect the dialogs were piling up in the background because I got an error message with "Device must retart" and crash. When I reopened, all was just fine. Go figure. I did the same tests as above, all worked.   You say "transcribe sequence." I did most of the tests on a source file transcription, but I also tested static sequence transcript in 25.3.0.   I'll look at this again when I update the Beta.   Stan   ... View more

@Federico-BlueFrameVisuals,   I get it. And I don't think PR will do it based on selection. But it gets close. But half with the cursor wheel and half with keystrokes.   To zoom on the CTI/playhead, use the sequence/timeline keyboard shortcuts for zoom in/zoom out (default =/-). Yes,  you can use the mouse by dragging the slider ends at the bottom of the timeline.   To zoom on the cursor position, use Alt+scroll wheel. That gets close to the clip selection option since you're actual timeline position (i.e. where your cursor would be) is going to be on that clip, and you can pick exactly which part of the clip to zoom in/out.   Edit: I'm Win 10 on PR 25.3.0. 25.4 has apparently dropped but not for me yet.   Stan       ...
