# conformsCaptionsToTimeRange

A Boolean value that indicates whether to conform the time range of a canonical caption.

```
var conformsCaptionsToTimeRange: Bool { get set }
```

## Discussion

By default, this property value is <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Swift/false>. If you set the value to <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Swift/true>, this object conforms the time range of captions to fit its encoded data.

When this object conforms captions to CAE608 format, it encodes them so that each CAE608 2-byte control code fits into one frame duration (1001/30000).
