I have, when the audio has reverb and background noise.

Not all YouTube videos are created equal.

What does the following line from the instructions mean?
"Please keep each transcripted line to one or two sentences."

How do you want our transcription formatted?

Re: A CD Project: Transcribe 1114 Strategy Video
 

I am also curious about this, do you want us to separate our transcriptions by 1 to 2 sentence lines? (What I have done is currently a big block of text).

I was wondering the same thing. Signed up for 15:01-20:00 minute time slot.

Hi everyone,

Basically I plan on embedding the subtitles into the video. Remember that subtitles cannot be too long in a chunk..so if you type up one or two sentences and then add a line break, it will be easier for me to align the time along with the text. If you give me chunks I will break it down but it will take a bit longer. I am already getting transcriptions returned. Thanks so much for the hard work, everyone.

Hi all -

Just a quick report. We have 50 minutes of time already checked out with 20 minutes returned to me to encode on the video. Please feel free to sign out more than one block if you wish.

I wanted to give a special thanks to AllenGregoryIV for transcribing five minutes of the video and returning it as well as Patrick Flynn and KelliV for transcribing two segments a piece.

Please consider transcribing five minutes of team 1114's video. I know I learned a ton from watching it and feel that with subtitles, many others will as well.

Again, the Google Doc for checking out timeslots is http//tinyurl.com/1114trans and the video is located at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Apk_X-maRf8

Another report:

Its pretty amazing! We currently have 75 minutes checked out with over 45 minutes completed. For those who have never transcribed before - this is a pretty mean feat.

A special thanks to Siri who has transcribed 10 minutes and to AllenGregory for five minutes of transcription. KeliV has transcribed 10 minutes so far and our MVP at the moment is Patrick Flynn who has done twenty minutes worth of transcription - and probably has memorized most of those segments I imagine.

Now for my part - I've been asked by my principal to do one or two projects so I haven't gotten a lot done on the encoding. I plan on having at least thirty minutes done by the end of this weekend and will post it as a sample.

I posted this on the other thread... but it has a place here as well.

Something I think you need to take into account, after seeing that you hosted that clip on your own YouTube Channel:

You should DEFINITELY ASK 1114 if it's okay to re-host their entire presentation. After all, it's their media, their presentation, and they reserve the right to control all the outlets it's posted on.

Sending them the transcript/subtitled version is one thing, rehosting something they worked crazy hard on, therefore drawing the attention away from their channel is another.

Hi, I'm Adam Cadot, the guy behind Simbotics' website, app and videos.

It's great to see the effort here behind the transcription of the video as it is sad we didn't have sufficient audio equipment available at the time of the recording.

Thanks for the helping us expand the reach of our resources!

Although rather than reupload the video, I think it may be the best idea to just upload captions for the video using YouTube's caption feature http://support.google.com/youtube/bi...age=g uide.cs

Here's an example of a video with close captioning and if we use their system then we get the added bonus of the animated caption history window they have available.
