Closed Captioning Assistance

ActivePresenter Support Questions
1

Problem: Closed Captioning appears in one large, word wrapped text box on the slide.

I have used the text to speech feature to insert audio to each slide from a PowerPoint import. I would like to use the text for Closed Captioning. The only way I have found to do this is to insert snippets of the text while aligning the snippets to the audio. Is there a way to have the closed captioning span the entire length of the audio or the length of the slide timing?
Thank you.

ActivePresenter version: ActivePresenter Pro Edition Version 9.0.6

OS: Windows 11 64 Bit

Hi Carlos,

At this time, ActivePresenter hasn’t supported this case yet.
You can copy text to the text document > edit it following the srt format then import it to ActivePresenter as a workaround.

Hello and thank you for your response.

This is in response to your email.

I am familiar with converting closed captioning into audio and have tried to use that feature. That is not what I am trying to do.

I have a one minute script for each slide. I have uploaded the script and have the software generate the audio from it. I would like to use the script to populate the closed captioning.

I do not need audio in the background.

I hope that makes sense.

Thank you.

~Carlos.
