Script for changing CC formats

Former user wrote on 1/3/2012, 8:28 AM

I know nothing about writing scripts, but used to write a bit in basic. Can someone give me some ideas on how to write a script to change the basic Closed Caption commands from POP UP to ROLL UP three.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Well, this is more about CC string formats than it is about Vegas.

I'm using c# to drive vegas to include CC608 strings without problems, how these are interpreted is up to the standard.

Do you have a CC608 authoring tool which would generate the sample strings, or do you know what they are, to generate the ROLLUP?

Any suggestions on how to change the font for the Export Closed Captioning to DVD-A script? The font in the stock script is yucko.

A copy of the stock script is below. I looked at it and I cannot see where it is specifying the font, unless that is when it says "Generic." But I'm know a teensy bit of vba but I'm a newb on scripts as well as Closed Captioning.
