Captioning Methods

There are four ways to add captions to your video:

Add captions using automatic Speech-to-Text

Create captions from audio on the timeline. This feature makes use of Microsoft’s Speech-to-Text

engine.

Import a prepared caption file

Import an SRT, SAMI, or SMI file to automatically sync prepared captions with the video.

Add captions by synchronizing text and audio

Paste a prepared script into the text box and synchronize the captioning with the audio playback.

Add captions manually

Manually type each caption into the text box. Set caption points to determine where the caption should

begin and end.
