Subtitle markers are the placeholders for the subtitle text added to your production. They are added to display at the exact time the dialogue is spoken in the video production, and display until it has completed. Unless you are importing subtitles from an SRT file or extracting them from an MKV file, you must add all the subtitle markers manually to your video production.

To manually add subtitle markers to your video production, you can:

•click the play button on the player controls and then click the button at the beginning of every piece of dialogue spoken to create all the subtitle markers required for your production. Continue this process until the video is complete, and then click the stop button to load the subtitle markers into the Subtitle Room.

•use the player controls to find the position in the video where you want to add the subtitle, and then click the button to add a single subtitle marker.

Once you have added the subtitle markers, the next step is to edit the subtitle text and duration. See Editing Subtitles for more information.
