What they were saying: Leaders debate on BBC iPlayer with twitter subtitles from parliamentary candidates

Since February my post on Twitter powered subtitles for BBC iPlayer has remained in my top 5 posts and I’ve been meaning to revisit the iPlayer platform with another twitter subtitle example. The general election ‘Leaders Debates’ seemed like an ideal event to experiment with the format. It became very apparent after the first debate […]

Convergence @youtube meets @twitter: In timeline commenting of YouTube videos using Twitter [uTitle]

Previously when looking at twitter subtitling of videos the focus has been on replaying the backchannel discussion with the archive video from live events. The resulting ‘Twitter Subtitle Generator’ has now been used to generate and replay the twitter stream for programmes on the BBC iPlayer (some iPlayer examples), the JISC 2010 Conference (See Searching […]

Twitter subtitling, the three E’s: Embed, embed, embed

A conversation with Brian Kelly led to a quick refresh of the Twitter Subtitle Generator (iTitle) [I’ve got tired of linking to all of mine and Tony’s previous posts on this so started the Twitter subtitling wikipedia entry]. Brian was interested in using iTitle to create twitter captioned versions of videos from IWMW10. Their plan […]

Twitter/YouTube commenting: Embeddable, open sourced and with its own WordPress plugin [uTitle]

Having added embed options for the Twitter subtitling of live events (iTitle), it made sense to include these with the Twitter/YouTube commenting tool (uTitle). As both these tools have some code in common adding embed options for the player and player+navigation was relatively straight forward. So now you can embed Twitter commented YouTube videos in […]

[flickr]4619831939[/flickr] Having spent a couple of nights crunching code it’s time to catch up with some paperwork. Since writing about the iTitle updates in Twitter subtitling, the three E’s: Embed, embed, embed Brian Kelly has followed up with a couple of posts (Captioned Videos of IWMW 2010 Talks and Twitter Captioned Videos Gets Even Better) […]

Give it a REST: iTitle/uTitle linking (oh and you can comment on Vimeo vids in uTitle)

[flickr]3040682476[/flickr] In Brian Kelly’s Captioned Videos of IWMW 2010 Talks post last month he had three suggestions for improvement: searchable collections; a ‘RESTful interface’ to link to specific tweets in the video; and better cross browser support. In my last post on iTitle I highlighted 97% of desktop web browsers can now enjoy iTitle Twitter […]

Reliving ALT-C 2009 keynotes with preserved tweets

Unfortunately I won’t be able to attend ALT-C this year and will have to muddle on as a remote delegate, primarily surfing the conferencing twitter stream. Brian Kelly posted about the Use of Twitter at the ALTC 2009 Conference last year and by all accounts if ALT are able to video stream the keynotes again […]

iTitle: Full circle with Twitter subtitle playback in YouTube (ALT-C 2010 Keynotes)

In March 2009 Tony Hirst posted a solution for Twitter Powered Subtitles for Conference Audio/Videos on Youtube. A year and a half later, numerous evenings tweaking code, lots of support, advice and promotion from Tony, Brian Kelly and others, and we have come full circle. What began for me as a method to playback real-time […]

ALT-C 2010 Keynotes get a ‘Tweet Track’ with help from RSC Scotland North & East

In the last edition of RSC NewsFeed we posted Farewell Lectures? Donald Clark Stirs it Up which highlighted Donald Clark’s “Don’t lecture me” keynote from ALT-C 2010. In this post we directed you to a related post on the Learning Conversations blog which mentioned that there was a lot of backchannel dialogue during Donald’s presentation by delegates […]
