Multiple texts at the same time on subtitle
2 CommentsSorted by Oldest First
Hi Gustavo,
In these cases, I add the transcript of the on-video text between normal brackets in the sub for the audio content (1).
This is not elegant, granted, but at least it conveys both types of information.
(1) If the Amara software decides that the sub is too long and splits it in 2, in the list of done subs, I cut the content of the 2nd sub and paste it at the end of the 1st, then I delete the empty 2nd sub.

Gustavo, it is now possible to use line breaks in order to have multiple separated texts in a subtitle: see Multi-line subtitles: Amara now supports line breaks!.
