Recording is not clear

The sentence " Elle porte aussi des vêtements très originaux" - the word vêtements - sounds like jetements.

Does it have to be someone doing something or just something happening?

It says jusqu'à ce que and subjunctive is for until someone does something so for example 'we kissed until his parents arrived'. But could it also apply to 'we talked until it became too late'? So a second part of the sentence not done by someone but a situation without a person and action.

Capitalisation in dialogue

I kept getting corrected for using a capital letter after the "-" at the start of a line of dialogue. But it was frustratingly inconsistent—later I would get corrected for not using one. And the final text is displayed with capital letters in all cases. What's going on/what's the rule?
