Hi list,
I just wanted to say, that we currently have an intern for some weeks
here that has the task to write a module that it is hopefully easy
possible to use Universal Subtitles (http://www.universalsubtitles.org)
with Matterhorn.
The idea is to add a button to the engage player that anyone can press
to get to the Universal Subtitles (their hosted service, or a local
installation depending on the matterhorn configuration).
The current status of this small project is that the intern had a closer
look at universal subtitles, and we are quite confident that we could
realize this hopefully without changes to universal subtitles and
without any major changes to matterhorn.
There are still some small open questions, how we can add the subs to
the distributed mediapackage i.e. We will bother the people who might
know this, if we get stuck.
We will provide this as a contrib module.
I just announce this here to avoid that others might work on something
like this simultaneous. So speak up if you already have something
similar. We decided not to finish OpenCaps that still had several bugs,
because the workflow to subtitle a video in Universal Subtitles is much
more user-friendly and we can have several users working on the
subtitling of one video.
