Getting Started
 Then add the subtitle from the bin to the timeline by dragging and
dropping it into the empty timeline track:
Figure 2-3: Adding a subtitle bin clip
Once the subtitle bin clip has been added to the timeline, you will see
its timeline element in the video track. It will already contain the MXF/
XML subtitle file in a subtitle track. Then you can add further subtitles
as described in section “Adding Further Subtitles (via Subtitle Tracks)”
on page 2-12.
Adding a Subtitle via an Empty Timeline Element
To add subtitles you can also use an empty timeline element. You can
find the empty subtitle timeline element in the effects pane of the tool
area:
 Configure the timeline to show another empty video track, for
example, via the timeline output settings or by using the menu
option Add track on the context menu of a video track.
 In the tool area activate the tab Effects.
 Select from the folder ’titling’ the effects operator ’Subtitling’ and
drag and drop it to the empty timeline track:
Contrary to video or audio clips, a subtitle timeline element
does not have a connection to a bin clip. For example, the re-
spective bin clip can be deleted without influencing the subtitle
added to the timeline.
