Import Subtitles into Vegas (not DVDA)

Hi everyone...

I want to add subtitles into Vegas but it looks like there is no easy way to do it. I am creating subtitles using Subtitle Workshop (http://www.urusoft.net/products.php) and what I want to do is be able to render a video with those subtitles encoded in the video.

The closest thing I've come to seeing this work is from this message:
http://mediasoftware.sonypictures.com/Forums/ShowMessage.asp?Forum=21&MessageID=276668

What the script does is just changes the text from the subtitles into regions... but i would rather have generated text be shown on the time line. Can anyone help?

Hello edwardj,

I see nobody has responded, so at this late date I can tell you that unfortunately it isn't possible to use a script to set the text in a text event. A huge deficiency of scripting, in my opinion.
