To edit closed captions in News Cut, create a new project with subtitle support. In the Captions Track field of the dialogue window, specify the number of subtitle tracks.

Create an empty subtitle clip on a project timeline. It is preferable for duration of the created subtitle clip equals duration of the current video clip. Right click the subtitle track and select Add Empty Clip. Thus, a clip containing subtitles has been added to the project: it can be moved and edited along with video clips.

Working with subtitles requires using the Caption Track window and subtitle tracks on the timeline. The Caption Track window allows viewing all subtitles of the selected track. The subtitle track selected on the timeline is highlighted with the “CC” icon.

To add a subtitle, place the cursor to the needed position on the Timeline, right click in the Caption Track window and select New Caption.
