Great to hear that the work has started! http://www.universalsubtitles.org is an amazing easy to use interface for subtiteling videos and we can hopefully feature this great community also!

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.
