I've been working with the Miro Community folks to figure out how to add Universal Subtitles functionality to videos on GNOME Miro Community (http://gnome.mirocommunity.org/). It seems it's not too difficult. Once a video has been registered with Universal Subtitles, there's some embed code that I can just swap into GMC.
I'm definitely interested in doing that for GNOME videos on GMC for any videos registered with Universal Subtitles. On 02/16/2011 11:28 AM, Stormy Peters wrote: > Universal Subtitles is awesome.
