MovCaptioner Publisher's Description:
Make your QT movies and podcasts accessible! MovCaptioner allows you to add captions to your QT movies and make transcripts of your videos or podcasts as quickly as you can type! MovCaptioner keeps repeating a segment of the movie until you are done typing what you hear. Just hit the Return key and it will save your caption and automatically advance to the next few seconds of the movie, allowing you to zip through your captioning tasks in no time flat. You don't need to be a QuickTime guru, either. The caption track is added automatically with the click of a button. And clicking the Transcript button compiles all the captions into one concise text file. If you can type, you can make your movies accessible! Makes embedded QT text tracks, SMIL captioned movies, Flash CS3 captions, SubRip SRT, SubViewer SUB, Spruce STL, SAMI (for Windows Media), and transcripts with either timestamps or in paragraph form. And now, if you already have transcripts of your movie, you can import them into MovCaptioner to set as captions.
