I don't use this tool so I don't
know how it handles the files.
If you look at the versioning tool, it asks for the CPL file so it knows
the reel duration.
If not, you have to know the reel duration before wrapping, that's why
it asks for the last TC.
No idea why to let an empty one at the beginning, for me it has no utility.

Subtitles after an empty one may not display.
I saw it one time, but I can not say if it's a common issue.
In doubt I recommend not to use empty subtitles in Interop, as it has no
utility.
Why do you have empty subtitles at the beginning
and the end of your files?
It is not necessary for interop and it causes troubles for servers in many cases!
What combination of factors have you seen fail for that case? I only
use SMPTE but it's always good to know. For smpte I recommend not to put the empty
subtitle (ONLY) at the end, it is better if the mxf wrapper does it, as it know the reel
duration it will wrap.
michaelcinquin would not add the empty subtitles unless you told the
tool to do so, and it does not have access to the reel duration
because it only receives a subtitle file.
