I'd like to do the following:

I made an video on my own! Then I wrote down the speech to a .txt file.
I did it like this:

start time, end time, text
----------------------------------------------------------
00:16 00:18 paramount pictures presents...
00:24 00:28 a mind production
00:31 00:35 a vortex & namimbi film
00:39 00:45 the reunion - nice to meet you in thailand
00:47 00:52 main actors
----------------------------------------------------------

now I'd like to convert this "text" into something I can load in
scenarist! because I'll author the movie there.

any solutions???

Yeah -- there is a guide here on Doom9 that will do it.
