141 –YouTube video captions in English, and how to auto-translate into other languages
This video shows the potential in our training videos for viewing captions and viewing captions in other languages
Sample captioned video | It is possible to view ALL of our videos with text captions, simply by clicking the icon at the bottom of the screen | YouTube is wonderful for auto-converting voice into text captions | We are also going through and editing the English text captions to make them more accurate and more simple for YouTube to translate | If you struggle to hear the voice, or are 2nd-language English, or struggle with the narrator accent, watching the captions can help – you can turn them ON and OFF with a single click | Another good feature – it is possible and easy to auto-translate these captions – EXAMPLE – see how there is English auto-generated and then English (edited) | How to use auto-translate to a language of your choice (a wonderful YouTube tool!) – we are improving the English captions in all our videos to optimise the auto-translation |
