Closed Caption .vtt edit in Stream
- Jun 29, 2017
So it would be as follows...
- After the autogenerated caption file is created and shows the transcript mode on the video.
- Edit the video
- Options section > Captions > "Download file"
- Open up the .VTT file downloaded in a text editor, make corrections, etc.
- Go back and edit the video > Options > Captions
- Uncheck the "autogenerate a caption file" check box.
- "Upload a caption" file button.
- Upload your edited .VTT file.
We'll then use your new custom caption file for the transcript mode and deep search.
NOTE: We'll be adding ability to edit the transcript direclty in Stream in the future as I know the above isn't intuitive or easy.
You can download the vtt file and edit it with a text editor (Notepad, etc) and then reupload it to the Stream site.
Justin Miller yesterday I found the vtt to download (i recall it being tricky to find. today I cannot see where it is at all. any ideas?
