You need to specify the languages and fonts for the exported file. Be sure to select the right languages, because they determine the encoding of the exported file.
.890 Export Configuration
Note: When working in 890 mode the language configuration will automatically be applied to export settings. The additional information saved in File/Details will be filled in automatically in the respective fields in the Details sub-page here.
Start of message |
Programme Start is the timecode of the first frame of the video which is intended for transmission. From the drop-down menu you can choose between the following options: Manual - allows you manually type in the Start of Message timecode. Auto - automatically sets Start of Message using the first subtitle's In-cue rounded down to the closes hour. For example, if the first subtitle starts at 10:00:32:21, the Start of Message value will be automatically set to 10:00:00:00. Programme Start TC - automatically uses the value of the Programme Start TimeCode parameter saved in the Details. Programme Start TC can be selected from Video/Setup Timecode with a video opened in. Video Start TC - automatically gets video's start time as specified in Video/Setup Timecode. This option can be used only when a video is loaded in. |
Export Open or Closed subtitles |
Allows the subtitles to be exported either as Open or Closed in the 890 file. Please mind that when the project contains two tracks, the options present will be different. |
Important:
When exporting to .890 file format, you should mind it supports up to 8 lines per subtitle. If a subtitle has more than 8 lines, they are truncated, thus producing the following message:
Subtitle XXX – x bottom lines are truncated.
Where XXX is the subtitle number and x is the number of truncated lines.
When exporting to 890 you can also encounter the same message as with the PAC file format (There are unprintable characters).
This situation is resolved by selecting the right languages and fonts as already explained above.
You should know there is no vertical bottom, top or center position attributes with the .890 files. The vertical alignment is bound to the specific row number instead.
For example, the top aligned subtitles are exported onto line number one.
The .890 subtitle format does also support underline.
Exporting 890 file with "open" and "closed" subtitles
When the EZTitles project has a secondary subtitle track, subtitles in the main and secondary tracks can be exported as "open" or "closed" in the 890 output using the options below:
Selected Subtitle Track
|
Exports only the subtitles from the currently selected subtitle track. All subtitles will be indicated as "open" in it. |
Main track as Open, |
All subtitles from the main track will be indicated as "open" while those from the secondary as "closed". |
Main track as Closed, |
All subtitles from the main track will be indicated as "closed" while those from the secondary as "open". |
