Both modes can be selected in the Video Player and can be used simultaneously. When you export a period, the Original format checkbox determines the mode selection: if you don’t set the checkbox, only the overlay captions are exported; if you set the checkbox, only the separate caption tracks are exported. The presence of caption tracks is controlled with the checkboxes in the caption settings: the Background export window → Configure... → Streams settings.settings Image Added
