Export caption tracks

Select Export from the header bar at the top of Premiere Pro to open the Export workspace.

Export captions based on your preferences:

• Burn-in captions: When captions are burned with multiple caption tracks enabled, active caption tracks in the timeline become visible. While exporting, the captions are shown under Captions > Caption Tracks.

• Embed captions: Embed in Export File options support only the following caption formats. (You can choose the compatible format option available in the timelines.):
  • All channels for CEA-608
  • All channels for CEA-708
  • Only one Caption Stream for OP-47

• Sidecar export with .scc extension: .scc only supports 608 tracks, so the list will only show the available 608 tracks in the sequence. By default, if the timeline has 608 equal streams, they are auto-selected based on the number of streams from the lowest to the highest track number. However, the system does not select two equal streams simultaneously.
• Sidecar export with .mcc extension: Since .mcc only supports 608 and 708 tracks, the sequence shows only the available 608 or 708 tracks. By default, if the timeline has the same 608 and 708 streams, they are auto-selected based on the number of streams from the lowest to the highest track number. You can export 608 and 708 tracks all at once.
• Sidecar export with .xml export extension: .xml only supports 608, 708, Teletext, EBU Subtitle, and Australian OP-47. The dropdown under Export settings only lets you choose one track from all the different formats supported by .xml This configuration allows you to export only one track at a time.
• Sidecar export with .stl export extension: .stl only supports Teletext, EBU Subtitle, and Australian OP-47. It supports one stream at a time, so the caption track format shows all the supported tracks available in the sequence. You can then choose one stream to export at a time.
• Sidecar export with .srt export extension: While the .srt extension only supports one stream per file, it can support multiple formats, such as 608, 708, Teletext, EBU, Australian, and Subtitle.
