Re: [Avid-L2] .scc files from REV.com don't open in Media Composer

 

Picking up this thread from a few weeks ago.  Bouke from Videotoolshed has made a small and useful utility that allows .scc closed caption files from places like Rev to be imported into Media Central and Media Composer. In Central, you can edit and re-time each caption, and in Composer the .scc becomes a data track that you can move around the timeline. It's very useful.

So, I don't know if anyone's run into this - we've started using REV.com to generate closed caption files - it's a great value!  However, the .scc files from REV don't open in Media Composer.  However, until recently, you could simply open the REV version of the .scc file in Premiere, then export it again - sort of 'washing' the file through premiere - and that resulting file opens as expected in Media Composer.  The latest version of Premiere, however doesn't export .scc files, consequently this trick no longer works.

Anyone know why .scc files from REV.com don't open in Media Composer?  Is there a way to edit/tweak/convert them without using Premiere (or some more expensive piece of software?)  I wonder if the problem is on the REV side or the Avid side.  It would be great to fix this!  Maybe the next version of Media Composer could accept .srt files or something, too - that would be great.

Thoughts?
