What is the proper format to submit subtitles?
We accept subtitle files that conform to either of these formats: • STL: The Spruce Technologies subtitle format • SON: The Sonic Solutions bitmap-based format NOTE: we cannot add subtitles to 24P video. Submission requirements: Source tapes must be non-drop frame (29.97) and the program timecode must match the timecode in the subtitle file(s). Source timecode must begin at 00:00:00:00. This is different from our normal tape setup requirements, but to ensure proper subtitle importing, source video submitted for projects with subtitles must start at 00:00:00:00. Files submitted incorrectly may result in additional charges.
