I didn't realize that you can't change or edit on liveleak.
They also have a ridiculous rule for when you post a video on liveleak. You can only delete it after you get permission from the admins.
I don't know. I don't want Dan to feel that he is under pressure not to make a mistake because the mistake can't be corrected.
What do you suggest that we do?
I would have suggested flix, but I'm having problems accessing flix lately. Israelis do not have any problems, only people outside of Israel sometimes cannot get to flix. They are limiting access to the radius that encompasses the state of Israel.
Chaim,
I’ve been doing some experimenting, and I think the best way to do the subtitling is if we do it through Google Video. It turns out that Google Video is very compatible with Overstream. I can use any Google video as a base for a translation on Overstream. And the subtitle file, which includes the time hacks and everything, can be saved. I can then upload the subtitles to the Google video if I have access to the account.
To make sure that this could be done, I took a few of your Hebrew videos from ZooTube, uploaded them to Google on an account of my own, translated them on Overstream, and uploaded the subtitle files to Google. Here is what the final product looks like. By the way, you can turn the captions on and off by clicking on the CC button at the bottom of the videos:
Obama supporters are attacking us
No concessions to release captives
Here is the process that I propose:
1. You start uploading your Hebrew videos to an account on Google Video. You can speak as long as you like, because both Google and Overstream allow videos over 10 minutes long. They also both allow embedding, by the way.
2. I translate the video on Overstream.
3. I get into the account, upload the subtitle file to the corresponding video, and get out. This process literally takes all of 1 minute. A little while later, the subtitles will automatically appear on the video.
4. I post the link to the subtitled video on the forum like I’ve been doing.
5. Other JTFers who have the know-how can take the subtitled video from Google and upload it onto Liveleak, ZooTube, Flix, etc.
Unfortunately, you can’t see how many viewers each video has received on Google. (Overstream does show how many people have viewed the video by the way). But the good news is that whatever is in the subtitles goes into the Google Video search engines. For example, I searched Google Video for “Jews Against Obama” and the subtitled video on the Obama supporters attacking us was like the 11th video that came up.
You can consider this, and if this process sounds good to you, I’m willing to begin whenever you are ready.
