[Xerte] How to use transcript reader--instructions?

[Julian Tenney]

I'll add it in. It is certainly something I would have considered, so
there may be problems getting the time off the FLVPLayback, but I think
it can be done.

Hi Julian

not sure if this message will get through but yes I did try and it
didn't seem to do the same thing for the video preview - would be great
if it could.

erm, I think it might be... did you check?

 

but otherwise, yes.

Wow that's really useful! Could the same thing be enabled for video
preview?

It is. Something you might not know is that if you preview the sound,
then everytime you press the pause button, the current time in
milliseconds is put on your clipboard. Then you can just paste it in
where appropriate.

Crude transcript reader example

Add page
Give it a title
Choose your MP3
add some text

then click add nested page (remember you can change these later).

Then add the text, and in milliseconds set the sync point.

add a new nested page for the next point

I think thats the right way

I haven't got any MP3s on this pc to test.

Has anyone produced instructions for using the transcript reader page? I
don't see anything
in the Help file, but maybe it doesn't cover the page templates.

The demo (http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/toolkits/play_560) shows stanzas
of a poem
highlighed in sync with the mp3. I assume there is only one mp3 file
involved because when I
use the Nottingham Templates to experiment, I see a sync button.  I
assume you enter  the
number of seconds for the next sub page to be shown.  But I'm not
getting it, and I am not
sure how to proceed.

What is the workflow for the transcript reader?  And are there size
constraints I should bear
in mind? Should I break the reading up into different mp3 files for
easier/faster performance
for the end user?

Thanks.
