How can I export speech analysis text with imbedded timecodes for the creation of subtitle files?


i found script allows export text layers time codes .srt subtitle file. however, instead of multiple text layers, have one: meta data premiere speech analysis aid of different script, being used @ "subtitle layer". essentially, i'm trying use data create .srt file can create actual subtitles, not hybrid animation/text layer.

 

here script used export text layer .srt:

 

/*

subtitle exporter v01  

script philipp grolle

www.display-artists.de

 

 

instructions:

select text layers want export, run script, , save file .srt

 

attention: script has not been debugged or testet. try on own risk!

 

 

 

 

*/

 

 

// selected layers

var thecomp = app.project.activeitem;

var allelayer = thecomp.selectedlayers;

 

 

// count how many layers selected

var anzahllayer = allelayer.length;

 

 

 

 

// enable line below if want change order of text (ascending / descending)

/* allelayer.reverse(); */

 

 

 

 

   // prompt save file

   var thefile = file.savedialog("save text file.", "untitled.txt", "text txt");

  

   // if user didn't cancel...

   if (thefile != null) {

     

      // open file "w"riting,

      thefile.open("w","text","????");

     

         // selected layers

         (x = 0; x < anzahllayer; x++)

        

         {

                   

             // in- , outpoint of current layer , convert timecode (00:00:00:00)

            var timecodein = timetocurrentformat(allelayer[x].inpoint, 25);

            var timecodeout = timetocurrentformat(allelayer[x].outpoint, 25);

           

           

           // split value of inpoint; converting last 2 characters  (frames) milliseconds, , join again comma instead of colon

            var str_in= timecodein;

            var timecodeanfang_in=str_in.slice(0,8);

            var timecodeende_in=str_in.slice(9,11);

            var millisek_in = timecodeende_in*40; // 1000 milliseconds divided 25 fps = 40

            var zusammen_in = timecodeanfang_in +"," + millisek_in;

           

           

            //split value of outpoint; converting last 2 characters  (frames) milliseconds, , join again comma instead of colon

            var str_out= timecodeout;

            var timecodeanfang_out=str_out.slice(0,8);

            var timecodeende_out=str_out.slice(9,11);

            var millisek_out = timecodeende_out*40;

            var zusammen_out = timecodeanfang_out +"," + millisek_out;

           

            //counter number above timecode (in results)

            var zaehler = x+1;

           

            //writing results file

            thefile.write(zaehler);

            thefile.write("\r\n");

            thefile.write(zusammen_in);

            thefile.write(" --> ");

            thefile.write(zusammen_out);

            thefile.write("\r\n");

            thefile.write(allelayer[x].property("source text").value);          

            thefile.write("\r\n\n");

         }

 

 

  

      // close text file

      thefile.close();

     

      // open text file in default app

      thefile.execute();

   }
