Subtitles

[MatijaTelevizija]

Saw some subtitles with every first letter of a line of text omitted ?

Just happening is some very clever AI replacing Respeaking .....
see Red Bee https://www.redbeemedia.com/services/access-services/
they are very good at using context to resolve Homonyms ...
. different spelt words which sound the same/similar and also with dictionnaries for pasrticular contexts ,

This can also be used for prepared subtitles to get the higher quality Speech to text than normal systems
to get the text which then is just cut up or retimed (And may be colured) or tweak the output .....
I see some of the errors in this! but it is very good and quick to prepare,,,,
E.g in BBC four Coventry Cathedral - the latice spire is called a "fleche" the subtitles had "flesh"
(propably no archetectrural context yet!!!!)

Red Bee Media owns AI Media , so this has been triyed since at earliest 2008 ? But the subtitles on iCarly were not live , they were appearing line-by-line instead of word-by-word , so the AI system has been tried on recorded content for some reason too ? Mabye Nickelodeon revised the subtitles too as I have not regularly watched this show in more than 5 years
