I am having some trouble with open captions.
I got a dashcam that produces a .srt file that tells the current speed of the car along with its video file.

 

But but when I try to change the style of the text, like the color, size etc it dosent change on the playback.
same if i try to edit the actual text, none of the changes i do in the captions panel shows up on the playback.t8zFxT.jpg

 

But you can see the changes in the thumbnail of the captions panel.

 

Anyone know how to fix this?

I have not been able to discover a pattern as to when these display correctly and when they don't. The more complex the project or use of multiple caption streams are, the more likely to get things out of sync.


Sometimes saving, closing the project, and reopening works.

Once, cleaning the media cache resulted in the correct display.

Resetting workspace is worth a try, but it did not help the only time I tried it.

Do you want all the fonts the same? I would try selecting all captions in the caption panel, then change there.

What specific dot version of PR are you running?

Thanks for the response, I did try some of these out, like resetting the workspace.
And i am editing all the captions at the same time, but I also tried editing them individually.

I'll try some of the other tips you've given as well.

I'm running the newest version of premiere, 12.1.2 freshly installed today.

Cosing the project and reopening it worked, now it's all updating when changes are made.
Thanks a lot

Great. If you get any insight to what may get it out of sync (it seems pretty random), let us know.
