I'm gonna go back into Open Captions and click OK. Now this isn't relevant for Open Captions, which are onscreen all the time, but they are relevant for the CEA-608 and 708 captions because you can specify more than one stream for your media.

If you're working on standard def, you're probably using,608 and HD, it'll be 708. You'll notice that we've got CEA-608, and CEA-708, Teletext, and Open Captions. You've got things like the Height, and Width, and Timebase and so on. The first New Captions dialog gives you settings for the caption that are based on your current sequence. So I'm gonna go to the New Item menu at the bottom of the Project panel and I'm going to choose Captions. I'm gonna start by creating an open caption. I have a sequence opened already and I've got a couple of stretches of voiceover. To follow along, copy the assets that accompany this tutorial to your creative cloud account.
