UI

Input Section:

String input - takest the full file path to your subtitle file.
Sub Import button - runs the script that imports subtitles as sequences of type 'Text'.
- sequences are placed on the two topmost channels in VSE.
- only two line subtitles are supported
- pressing the button again will compare the sequences and their text,start time, end time, and will apply the changes.

NOTE: Updating sequences(in cases where the sequence/text is on the first channel or the one/lower line subtitle) because blender does not allow two sequences to overlap in one channel and because I didn't spent time to make it account for that, changing the time might result in that line popping to the above channel.

Update section

Takes the position, font size, and box margin settings and exposes them to the user.
- Note: these are the selected sequence's settings you don't need to edit those there but I just exposed them in the panel.
Sub Update buttom - runs the update script. Updates position based on the single line seqnece's position, font size and box margin(mainly because the double line subtitles's position have to be updated as well)

All other changes like font color,box margin or box margin color can be applied via the Copy to Selected so I haven't implemented anything to deal with this.

Using pip to install modules

If you want to add pip installing of external modules, it can be done like this:

import bpy, sys, subprocess, site

app_path = site.USER_SITE
if app_path not in sys.path:
    sys.path.append(app_path)

pybin = sys.executable  # bpy.app.binary_path_python # Use for 2.83

try:
    subprocess.call([pybin, "-m", "ensurepip"])
except ImportError:
    pass

try:
    import pysubs2
except ImportError:
    subprocess.check_call([pybin, "-m", "pip", "install", "pysubs2"])
    import pysubs2```

A few notes and ideas

Nice to see you working on this.

A few notes:
If you want to add an open-filebrowser button next to the path, there is a template for this in the Template menu: operator_file_import.py

After the import I get this error:
AttributeError: 'Context' object has no attribute 'active_sequence_strip' - I'm running the add-on in 2.93. But it works in 3.0: https://developer.blender.org/rBSc84d1ad3dbf4551b55f7b2630ef4ba7f6512b775https://developer.blender.org/rBSc84d1ad3dbf4551b55f7b2630ef4ba7f6512b775

For some odd reason can't the font type be batch changed with Copy to Selected, so maybe you can find a way to work around that?

The text strips can actually insert text with forced text breaks, but you just can't insert them manually in the string widget. Adding a string like this "line 1"+chr(13)+"line 2" to the text strip will draw the text in two lines.
