Re: [Avid-L2] Exporting an h.264 file from Avid with embedded closed captions?

If they are uploading via Creator Studio it as simple as giving them two files, the h.264 and a .SRT or WebVTT text file. They would get the opportunity to upload a timed text file after the video upload. I have no experience using this method with the Japanese alphabet.

OK, if you don't know, no one will :-)

I don't know if my contact people at the client's are the ones
that do the work or not, but they seem particularly non-tech
oriented. Just wanted to make it as simple as possible for them.
"See, here's one file. Upload it to your channel and you're
done." That's all.
