I don't remember if it was available in V9, but V12 under Tools is a script for exporting CC for youtube. Check under TOOLS>SCRIPTING.

Hi DougT

Thank you will search under TOOLS>SCRIPTING. If I do not find it then I am out of luck and will have to do it manually in You Tube.

@vkmast Maybe a moderator can respond: Is it okay to upload an existing Vegas script for someone to use here?

Create the command markers containing the Closed captions in Timeline and after go to Tools/Scripting/Export Closed Caption for YouTube.

Thank you people for trying to help. I found much better and much faster way to create CC than using Vegas built in feature which is lacking to say the least.

I installed the free DivXLand Media Subtitler and it is amazing with its Press And Hold feature. Only problem with it is that it is not smart enough to recognize non-latin characters and languages such as Chinese and Arabic. The program requires to make some changes to Windows settings to make it display such languages correctly and that is not convenient. For this problem, I also installed the free amazing Nikse.dk Subtitle Edit which which have no problem displaying any language. It's much more advanced than DivXLand Media Subtitler but it lacks the Press And Hold feature. I will never do CCs and subtitles in Vegas again.
