Captions in ITT

Hi - last month some posters from this community very kindly helped me resolve most of my problems regarding inserting foreign Closed Captions into CPX.

Sadly, I'm still not there yet. I have French and Spanish captions in CEA-608, but had to put the Russian in ITT as CEA-608 could not cope with Cyrillic script.

This has worked okay, but I need to convert the Closed Captions into titles for the, er, titles. I cannot change the font in CEA-608, nor in ITT but in ITT I cannot reposition it either, only top or bottom. Also, I have a subtitle so I'd love to have two lines. ITT only allows one line.

Any suggestions how I can do this?

Well – this is kind of shameless self-advertisement – my X-Title Extractor app will do the job with a few clicks.

Great, thanks a lot spherico. I had a quick look and seems like this will do the job. The captions capabilities on fcpx are very limited. I've downloaded your link, so I'll check it out shortly. I couldn't figure it out immediately, but I'll have a deeper look. Good work!
