DCP VF to SRT

[myig]

Hi there!

I'm trying to get an SRT file from the VF file. It seems like everyone's looking to make VF files from SRT but I couldn't find any resources for the other way. Thank you in advance!

There isn't a way to do that in DCP-o-matic at the moment, I'm afraid. You can export your subtitles as DCP XML but you'd have to do the conversion to srt with some other tool.

It could be a nice thing to add to DCP-o-matic in the future.

Thanks Carl! How do I export the subtitles as a DCP XML from a VF file?

You should be able to add the VF to a project with the "Add DCP..." button, then go to Jobs -> Export Subtitles...

Let me know if that doesn't work (I did not try it with a VF...)
