| Video Discription | The next tool I tested with video conferencing is Web Captioner, a web-based captioning #software. Out of all the tools, it has one major drawback. It only works with Chrome. Web Captioner's formatting is great. You can change the font, color, text size, and other traits. The speed in keeping up with the live conversation is good. Accuracy-wise. Ehhhh ... I think it may be less accurate than Google Slides and the PowerPoint add-in. One of its automatic caption errors had had me ROFL. I can't share it with you as it's not G-rated. Let's just say it beat the "jock itch" autocraptions. While I was laughing, the other person looked puzzled. I could barely get a word in and said "Captions." To caption that, Web Captioner wrote "Cat urine." π€£π€¦ββοΈ Web Captioner has a few unique features: π¬ Saves transcripts to Dropbox automatically. π¬ Saves transcripts as a text file. π¬ Lets you enter word replacements. For ex: Replace Merrill with Meryl. π¬ Supports multiple languages. π¬ Censors profane language. The entire transcript appears in a tab. To put it below the Zoom video, I had to resize the Chrome browser. Even after resizing it, the text would fall off the screen. I had to keep an eye on the scrolling to ensure the captions didn't go off-screen. PowerPoint add-in remains my No. 1 preference. Google Slides right behind. It doesn't save transcripts. As a comparison, I tested all four on a podcast with my daughter. This way the audio and content are the same across the board.
