New Learning Tool - Interactive Video / Transcript Viewer
This is an open source application developed by the First Nations Studies Program at the University of British Columbia which synchronizes the video/audio file with transcripts. You can also "virtually cut" the video clip into "sessions" and easily explore through the entire archive. Every "session" is well defined in the meta-data perspective thus users can easily search through the video collection. The search function will allow the user to locate a particular section of the video and watch the "virtually cut" version on the fly. Check out the demo video archives produced with the tool:
(click on the "open IVT" button on the left hand side)

Very cool. What platform is this based? Is the transcribing done automatically by the program?

Hi Ray, Thanks. It is done using mainly Java Scripts. I don't know how was the transcript done, but it is not done by the synchronization program.
