Sweeping emails and comments; going to manage a few uploads and get some stuff dotsub’d after I’m done.

Mr. Pick, how would you feel about a video tutorial for subtitling WordPress.tv videos? I really, really want to post about this to see if we can enlist volunteers.

Comments long since moderated; got the final 1-Click installer video out of the transcription queue, and now working on a transcription that was 12% finished and abandoned (the bbPress integration video).
Also checked in briefly on the status of some of our WordCamp SF videos (waiting on those to come in) answering some questions that came in through email, including some users interested in sending us tutorials, and a handful of other odds and ends while uploading to dotSUB in the background.
Almost ready to call it a night.

Just finished up transcribing the BlackBerry app introduction video, but the subs aren’t showing in the VideoPress player yet – is there a window of time after which they normally would show?
There’s plenty more to get to tomorrow—I’ll check it in the morning. Michael, if you look at it and find something amiss, let me know as it’s late and my brain may be short-circuiting.

Cool. I’ve CC’d you on a message to our resident video tech wizard Hailin

I just added a transcription-in-progress to the latest tutorial on WordPress.tv.
Michael, I’m going to be out for a bit here, but could you do a pass on the transcription for errors/typos? The editor in me is screaming that someone else needs to take a look at it before I mark it as final and accept the message dotSUB gives me that “no more changes will be permitted.”

This is Michael Smolens, CEO of dotSUB. We can set WordPress up on with a project management system so the project manager can allow captions/timing to be changed. We do not make this easy, as once a video has multiple languages done with the same time code, and then the caption is changed, all the different langauge versions are wrong, and it is impossible then to fix everything.

Thanks for picking up on this, Michael – much appreciated.

Ryan – will try and take a look today, thanks for this. I had the same fear before, but I figure people will let the very occasional typo slide if it gets through

Wading into the dotSUB waters.

3 or 4 more videos to transcribe. Publishing blog posts. And then back to production.

Finishing up transcriptions, blogging about what’s new on WordPress.tv, doing some research for a new series of tutes, *and* a gentle drizzling of animation to boot. Variety rules.

This dotSUB thing is cooler than I thought.

It’s awesome. I’ve transcribed about 40 videos in a couple of days. Had a good chat with Michael, the CEO today – some interesting discussion points to talk about

Ok, so just as I uploaded the final video to dotSUB we had our first volunteer to start translating them. I’ll be adding links from WordPress.tv videos this week, and making a dotSUB tutorial, but if you know someone anxious to get started, the collection can be found here: http://dotsub.com/mediacollection/f7dd279f-6b91-4e99-b1d7-638276ac571e

Almost have the backlog of existing (in-house) WordPress.tv videos uploaded to our dotSUB account. Next I’ll start adding them as links from posts.

I can whip up a blog post as well.

This one is in the bag. A wptv blog post would be cool
Would be awesome if we could get the word out to the localization teams on this. Also think we’re going to want to comb through the backlog of dotSUB videos and get them feeding into wptv, so people don’t translate things that then don’t make it to primetime
