Captioning Videos

We currently recommend using YouTube for captioning videos for which 利记APP官网手机版 owns the rights. Generally, this is going to mean that 利记APP官网手机版 created the video. 

Use the YouTube Caption Editor to caption videos posted on YouTube. You can keep the URLs unlisted to avoid them showing up in search engines; however, they will be visible to anyone with the link. Captions will be automatically generated using speech recognition technology. You will need to check the captions for accuracy and edit where necessary.
