From the project READMEAll captions must be processed in JSON. The captions must use the Caption type which is the following:
import type { Caption } from "@remotion/captions";
This is the definition:
type Caption = {
text: string;
startMs: number;
endMs: number;
timestampMs: number | null;
confidence: number | null;
pageBreakAfter?: boolean;
};
