You could of course laboriously type the text into lower third FCP X titles. Given you have the translated text in a text document on your computer already (?), here's how to convert it to SRT:


... and once you have the "x.srt" file, here is how you get it into your timeline:


This 15$ app puts all subtitles into a secondary storyline. If the edit should change afterwards, you should first free the individual title clips with cmd+shift+g, this connects every subtitle clip with the clip beneath it.

It's been a while. Don't know if FinalSRT works on 10.3 ...

Or use Rob Mills, Jubler (is free-
), and the X-Title Importer ( www.spherico.com/filmtools/TitleExchange/XTI/index.html )
In the Jubler, you make the SUB file, and in the X-Title Importer you make FCPXML (from SUB file).
