This setting is only available in the extended mode of the Export box. Click >> in the bottom right corner to display it.

By default when the Add captions checkbox is set checked only captions stored in the captions database overlay the exported video with default display parameters. These parameters can be changed and captions specifying time can be added. For this click the Configure… button next to the Add captions checkbox.

 

The Edit captions box will appear.

 

The following parameters can be set in this box:

  1. Caption line export parameters:
    1. The Copy captions to separate files checkbox enables saving exported captions as an individual file with .srt extension (1). The file with captions has .srt extension and is saved to the specified folder. Captions are exported as an individual line.

    2. The Combine captions into one track checkbox enables saving captions of all kinds into one track (or one .srt file) (2). If the checkbox is set unchecked, then the time and camera name captions are exported separately from the captions from the captions database.

      Set both Copy captions to separate files and Combine captions into one track checkboxes in order to view all captions in Windows Media Player (WMP). This is due to WMP feature: it does not allow selecting or switching the caption tracks (only enabling or disabling them).


  2. Text scroll parameters:
    1. The Enable automatic text scrolling checkbox is used to limit the number of lines in captions overlaying exported video (3).
    2. The maximum number of caption lines that can overlay the video is set in the Maximum lines to show field (4). If there are more lines in captions that are to be displayed on the video, then the lines will be displayed partially with 1 second interval.
  3. Time specifying parameters of caption line:
    1. The Add line of captions with timestamp checkbox enables overlaying camera time and date on the exported video (5). 

    2. The Add camera name checkbox enables overlaying camera name captions on the exported video (6).

      Captions of time and camera name are exported as individual lines.


    3. The Font button opens the standard Windows box to specify font parameters for captions (7).
    4. The Color button opens the standard Windows box to select the color of captions (8).
    5. The Horizontal alignment dropdown list is used to locate captions horizontally on the video (9).
    6. The Vertical alignment dropdown list is used to locate captions vertically on the video (10).
