1. Export parameters of the line of captions:
   1. The Copy captions to separate files checkbox (1) enables saving the exported captions as a separate file with the .srt extension (1). The file with captions has the .srt extension and is saved to the specified folder for recording. Captions are exported as a separate line.

   2. The Combine captions into one track checkbox (2) enables saving captions of all kinds into one track (or one .srt file) (2). If the checkbox is clear, then the timestamp and camera name captions are exported separately from the captions from the captions database.

      Info
      title Note
      Set both the Copy captions to separate files and the Combine captions into one track checkboxes in order to view all captions in Windows Media Player (WMP). This is due to a the WMP feature: it does not allow selecting or switching the caption tracks (only enabling or disabling them). To ensure that the caption streams combined into one track don't overlap on the video during playback, configure one of the options to display them: set left alignment for each stream; set different values of captions caption position for each stream using the X and Y coordinates; set different alignment options for each stream. See Configuring caption streams. If you don't configure the display, captions can overlap during playback because their display areas overlap.

2. Text scroll parameters:
   1. The Enable automatic text scrolling checkbox checkbox (3) is used to limit the number of lines in captions overlaying the exported video (3).
   2. The maximum number of caption lines that can overlay the video is set in the Maximum lines to show field (4). If there are more lines in the captions that must be displayed in the video, then the lines are displayed in parts with a one-second interval between the parts.
3. The captions with timestamp and date can be added as a track or built-in over the videoembedded over the video.
   

   Info
   title Note
   Captions with timestamps can be added to videos as a separate track in all modes except the following: without data conversion, with video compression (recompression) enabled. See Selecting the format and recompression for the exported file.
