Even with a conscious effort to not be nitpicky they could take a lot of time to make readable and that's without addressing the time syncing issues.</div><div><br></div><div>2) Youtube does not provide any feedback about what it doesn't like about the subtitle files when it does encounter an issue either than line number and it's not clear how it's calculating those line numbers (subtitle line versus actual file line).</div><div><br></div><div>3) The Youtube autogenerated ones on the ones I did look at are surprisingly good and can be easily edited from the classic editor. In many cases they would need at least a little though. Antora alone has some amusing variations. </div><div><br></div><div>These three things combined with a desire on my part to not make this a tar pit of activity has led me to making the following recommendations:</div><div><br></div><div>1) We continue putting the really clean transcript on the <a href="http://evergreen-ils.org" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">evergreen-ils.org</a> site and linking to it in each video description.</div><div><br></div><div>2) For the subtitles / closed captions we use the Youtube autogenerated ones as our basis rather than the CC file from Zoom as I think it's a cleaner basis and has the advantage of time codes in place already.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div>
