    Not sure what’s happening here – what frame rate is you FCPX timeline? Drop-frame Time-code?

    Try to export a timeline that contains only subtitles, and export as fcpxml (1.5, 1.6 and 1.7 all work).

    – Duplicate your timeline
    – Delete everything except your subtitle track
    – Export as fcpxml

    SubSimple will only convert DaVinci Resolve subtitles create with the Text tool.

    SubSimple will only accept SRT files encoded in UTF-8. If it can’t recognise the file, it won’t convert.

    To make sure your SRT file is in UTF-8:
    – open your SRT file in TextEdit on your Mac
    – in file, choose “Duplicate”
    – then choose Save
    – At the bottom, where it says Plain Text Encoding, choose: Unicode (UTF-8)
    – Save new SRT file

    The number of subtitles should not be a problem.

    By “Subtitle Export” – I just mean to rename your Timeline and stay organized. Make sure there are no special character in your filename. Aside from that, I’m not sure what’s going wrong. I would need to see your fcpxml file.

    Hi!

    For the first title not showing up, try opening your SRT file with TextEdit and save your file. Try to convert the re-saved file with SubSimple. It should fix the missing first title.

    I’ve never seen the one-frame long subtitle problem… I’d have to see your SRT file and know which framerate you’re converting your FCPXML to.

    The “add…[Read more]

    Your FCPXML might be too heavy for SubSimple.

    Try this:
    – Duplicate your DaVinci Resolve timeline (rename/append with Subtitle Export)
    – Delete everything except subtitle track
    – Export fcpxml and convert with SubSimple

    That’s bizarre. My only other suggestion would be to try and export as a fcpxml v1.5 or 1.6. If it’s still problematic, please send me your test fcpxml to see if I can debug your workflow. Thanks!

    Hi!

    We’ve moved the SubSimple app to Resolver.tools. Sorry for the deleted forum thread.

    I’m not sure what’s causing your FCPXML to SRT conversion to repeat a 01:00:00,000 timecode.

    What’s your FCPX timeline framerate? Did you try duplicating your timeline and erasing all other content before converting to SRT with SubSimple?
