@RB
once again, thanks for the valuable tips. would you mind if i paraphrase your advice for the guide i am writing?

one question though.
when you have multiple subtitle streams have you found that you need to do this step
Quote:
What I now always do is simply dragging the BOV subs into the data editor and specify "subpicture with forced start" when Scenarist asks. The big difference here is that subs imported this way don't have a "display stop" property compared to those imported from .SST. Now you drag them into the track over the scene (cell) that will have the button(s), drop them there and they will automatically "snap" to the end of the scene
for every subpicture, in every substream, that has the same cell times as your BOV subpics or can you simply adjust the start/end times to match?
so basically, does scenarist care if the other substreams have a "display stop" when the BOV stream does not?
cheers
