Tools for DIY Captioning | Collaborative for Communication Access via Captioning - 0 views

  • Overstream.net is another online captioning tool
    • Claude Almansi
       
      Overstream does not work anymore.
  • A question that often comes up is how to “replace” the original YouTube video (without cc) with the newly cc’d version one creates with Universal Subtitles
    • Claude Almansi
       
      1. It's not a matter of "replacing" the original video, but of adding the CC captions to it. 2. It does not only work with YouTube videos, but with videos hosted on any platform that supports CC (Internet Archive e.g.) 3. This does not only work with CC captions created on Universal Subtitles - well, Amara now - but with any CC captions
  • Universal
    • Claude Almansi
       
      See above: this works with any CC captions, no matter what application you create them with.

  • you can NOT download a fully captioned video at this time
    • Claude Almansi
       
      But you can download the video separately, and then play both the video and the captions on your computer with a desktop application.
  • You may have garbage content to remove near the beginning or end of the file if there is extra content in your transcript file, music, or other notations
    • Claude Almansi
       
      No: the garbage content is produced by saving the Word file as .doc or as .rtf. Save as UTF-8 encoded plain text, with the original .sbv extension if Word lets you. Otherwise, with the .txt extension, and change the extension from .txt to .sbv afterwards.
  • Make changes to the .sbv file by opening in Word
    • Claude Almansi
       
      Editing an .sbv file in Word is tricky: you might accidently delete some time codes. Much easier NOT to make the video private, and create a captioning page from it in an online app like Amara or DotSUB, add the caption file there and edit it there. Then download the edited captions and add them to YT. If you mind having the rough YT-produced captions showing, just write in the decription that they are still in progress.
  • Save as the same file type.
    • Claude Almansi
       
      Actually: save with the same file extension - .sbv in your example - but be careful to save as UTF-8 encoded simple text file
  • on the native Word file
    • Claude Almansi
       
      See above: it's quicker and easier if you use an online captioning platform. And you don't have to delete the automaticly synchronized captions until you're ready to upload the edited version.
  • Upload the new .sbv file “with timing” from the selection option. This is very quick. Click the video and see how it looks. Download the .sbv file again and repeat steps 8 through 12 until you are happy with the video.
    • Claude Almansi
       
      Again, if you create a page from the YT video on a captioning platform, it's much simpler, as you can do the whole adjusting there without having to download and reupload each time you edit the captions.
  • We received this comment from Claude A: “These instructions concern adding a transcript to a YouTube video to have it timecoded into subtitles by the YouTube automatic synchronization feature.”
    • Claude Almansi
       
      This could be cut: what I meant was that the title for this section could be changed to "Use the YouTube automatic synchronization to make captions from a transcript".

But Coursera decided to use Directly for crowdsourcing answers to questions pertaining to the Global Translator Community sent to translate@coursera.org . So this is relevant to anyone who sends such a query.

Amara Support Center : How do I download subtitles from Amara and upload them to my You... - 0 views

  • YouTube
    • Claude Almansi
       
      Why only YouTube? subs made with Amara can be added to videos on other platforms too.
  • At present, YouTube uses Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) for English videos and transcripts, with plans to roll out this service for other languages
    • Claude Almansi
       
      Obsolete: YT has already added Japanese and Spanish, at least.
  • Click the down-facing arrow that is to the right of the Edit button.

Amazon invokes DMCA against Kindle e-books from other vendors | Politics and Law - CNET... - 0 views

    The author of the software in question, titled Kindlepid.py, is listed as Igor Skochinsky, a hardware hacker who performed a remarkable analysis of the Kindle and described in December 2007 how he was able to gain access to the device. It's unclear why Amazon waited so long to respond with a legal threat, and why the company targeted MobileRead.com: Skochinsky's original blog post about Kindlepid.py is dated December 2007, and the copy of the Kindlepid.py software hosted at the Googlepages.com Web-page posting site is still available for download at http://skochinsky.googlepages.com/azw-0.2.zip
