Intended Display Aspect Ratio

Effectively defines the intended display aspect ratio (DAR) of the root container. This attribute controls the mapping of the root container to the related video object. For example 4:3 region will be mapped approximately 20% from the left edge of an image frame with an aspect ratio of 16:9, or 10% from the left edge of an image frame with an aspect ratio of 4:3.

Font Name

Allows you select specific Font or rather choose Generic Name of the font family.

When using Command Line/Config Editor of Watch Folder versions of EZConvert you can select/type in <from_source>. This parameter will take the font specified in Project Settings/Fonts or in the input .ezt/.eztxml file and will pass it automatically to the output.

Size and Units

Enables you to set selected font's size. By default, font size is measured in pixels (px) but it can also be expressed as Ems (ems) or Percentage (%).
 
Note: We highly recommend using the exact same values, when the font size is expressed in pixels, as set in the Project Settings or specifying the
size as 100%. Font size is part of the calculations for the horizontal/vertical position and if not filled in accordingly will lead to incorrectly positioned text later.

Override Font Color

Allows text's color to be changed directly from the export configuration window. Selected from the palette color will be applied to all subtitles in the exported file.

Title, Description and Copyright

Title, Description and Copyright are automatically filled with the appropriate values from the file details if the source subtitle file is an .ezt or .eztxml.

Language

Language will be filled automatically if it's been read and recognized from the source file or it can be selected manually from the list.

No Region

The language identifier tag consists of two parts Language ID + Country ID. For example, if we select "English (United States)" from the drop-down, the corresponding language tag will be: xml:lang="en-US".
For compliance with other applications or equipment, however, only the Language ID may be required. In this case, activating the No Region checkbox will output the following: xml:lang="en".

Box

By selecting the No Change option for the Box effect, the subtitles will be saved as they were originally created in EZConvert. But using the dedicated "Boxed" option will apply the effect to all subtitles in the output file and will also allow you to choose a Color for it as well as opacity. Opacity value of 0% mean that the box will appear fully opaque, while value of 100% will be fully transparent.

Outline

By turning this on you can specify the size of the outline effect as well as its color. Outline's size can be specified both in percent and in pixels. Outline size in percent is preferred when subtitle will be showed for videos in different resolutions.

Recut/Offset

Allows you to Recut/Offset the subtitles during the export.

From the drop-down menu you can choose between the following options:

None - doesn't recut or offset the subtitles and they will be exported with their original timing.

Manual - allows you manually specify the offset for the recut.

Auto - automatically offsets the timing using the first subtitle's In-cue. All timecodes are offset backward with the first subtitle's In-cue rounded down to the closes hour. For example if the first subtitle originally starts at 10:00:32:21 after applying the recut it's start time will become 00:00:32:21.

Programme Start TC - automatically subtracts the value of the Programme Start TimeCode metadata parameter if available in the input file. Note that this parameter is supported for EBU STL, EBU-TT, EZT or EZTXML file formats only.

Video Start TC - automatically gets video's start time from the input EZT or EZTXML file and uses it to recut/offset the subtitles.

Export secondary subtitles track as Forced Narratives

Subtitles from the secondary subtitle track will be considered as Forced Narratives and will be exported in the output file in a region for which the forcedDisplay parameter is set to true: itts:forcedDisplay="true".
The option becomes available only if the loaded file contains two subtitle tracks.

Export Zero Subtitle

Click it if you want to include the zero subtitle in the exported file.

Export Comments

Exports comments from the input file into the output file.

Timing Format

Specifies how the time is expressed in the output file. By specifications the time base should always be Media, i.e ttp:timeBase="media", and the available time expression options are as follows: HH:MM:SS:FF, HH:MM:SS.NN (10 miliseconds), HH:MM:SS.NNN(miliseconds), Frames, Seconds, Miliseconds and Ticks.
