New issue 639 by extremr...@yahoo.fr: SubRip SRT enhancements
http://code.google.com/p/sws-extension/issues/detail?id=639

Hi !

i already writte a whole post on Cockos forum but i didn't writte at the
good place. But please let me show you that post :
http://forum.cockos.com/showpost.php?p=1336289&postcount=1514 . That post
has colors and screenshots, i think it will be far me pleasing to read :P

In summary there is three ideas :

1. Regions to Regions Subtitles
The habilty to convert regions names to regions subtitles (preserving
regions names)

2. Merge regions with same name (preserving subtitles)
If regions with same name could be merged, while preserving subtitles
information, it could be perfect

3. Region names after SubRip SRT importation
When importing SubRip SRT file, the regions names are not very handy (it is
just an index). Regions named with regions subtitles will be perfect.

Once again, i encrouage you to show my post on Cockos forum, more detailed
and with pictures to illustrates my need and desires.

Thanks ! :)

Hi again !

the "Merge regions with same name (preserving subtitles)" can be
simply "Merge regions with same name"
This way, we merge regions first, and then applied subtitles

and then applied

Regions Names to Regions Subtitles

Hi again !

the "Merge regions with same name (preserving subtitles)" can be "Merge
overlapping regions with same name"

This way, we merge regions first, and then applied subtitles
and then applied
Regions Names to Regions Subtitles

The ovrerlapping feature is important in case of several identicals dialog
lines in the movie.

If they are overlapping, we can assume it's the same dialog line (edited
with comping technique)

Hi !

I succeed to overide what I wanted to you, using macro software and
subtitles editors.

It's a bit complex but I writte all this in an article.

here is the link :
http://extremraym.com/sous-titrage-reaper

I hope it will help those who wanted to do the same thing :P

That said, feature requests 1. and 3. are still profundly desired :)

Cheers !

I just writte an other article about subtitle creation in Reaper :

here is the link
http://extremraym.com/sous-titrage-facile-reaper/

During the writting, I noticed something that is not intuitive.

Context :
Let say I have Two Regions with subtitles
Region Index 1 / Name: First / Subtitle: Subtitle 1
Region Index 2 / Name: Second / Subtitle: Subtitle 2

Then, I noticed that I missed a sentence between the two regions, so I add
a third Region in that order.
Region Index 1 / Name: First / Subtitle: Subtitle 1
Region Index 3 / Name: Third / Subtitle: Subtitle 3
Region Index 2 / Name: Second / Subtitle: Subtitle 2

Problem:
I think it is more handy to have the Region index display in order, so I
execute the action that Renumber all Markers in Time Order.
Regions index are now fine, but I get this :
Region Index 1 / Name: First / Subtitle: Subtitle 1
Region Index 2 / Name: Third / Subtitle: Subtitle 2
Region Index 3 / Name: Second / Subtitle: Subtitle 3

Index are Renumber, which is great.
Names are preserved, which is great.
But subtitles are inverted.

Feature Request :

5.Renumber Markers doesn't change Subtitles order.

This Feature Request is less important than 1. and 3. but more than 2. and
4. (export CSV)
====
Just a note about Feature Request 4 (export region as CSV)
Because the only way to export subtitles from a project to an other is to
export as SRT, and because of the issue 1., it is no possible to transfer
both region and regions subtitles from one project to another =/
Definitely, Feature Request 1. and 3. are the most important.
(note : no need for FR 3. to handle Breaking Lines)
====

Thanks for listening :)

Hi,
I really want to see an external subtitles support to videos inside Reaper.
Its a very useful feature in case of narrations.

Hi !
I thinks external linking will not allow edition of the subtitles.
It why you can Import them instead.
Here is an article I wrote about recent enhancement on that :
http://extremraym.com/en/subtitling-sws-2-6-0-scripts/

This thread and website is overt, I invite you to report any bug and
feature request on the sws github.

Cheers !
