Re: creating subtitles in avid - complicated?

thats the spot. I've never used it, but in 10 secs of trying, here is what I figured out.

Drag the effect to your clip, or put it on an empty track up top.

Open your effects properties (tools effect editor)
open the area that says "caption text"
type your text
As soon as you start typing, a caption box appears on your screen. I'm sure you can take it from there.
