Have you ever wished you could have a transcript of a YouTube video you watched?
Do you ever use Closed Captioning on YouTube videos? Did you even know that you could?
I occasionally watch YouTube videos to learn how to do something or to learn more about a topic or person. I just learned about two "tools" available for YouTube videos that may help me when I do that: Closed Captioning and Transcripts
I made a screencast to show you how to access both Closed Captioning and Transcripts on YouTube: http://somup.com/cq6UXgff9f It demonstrates how to do this on a laptop or desktop computer. The screen on your mobile device will look a little different, so you will just have to explore.
Now....not all videos have transcripts available using the method I demonstrate in the screencast, so you may need to copy and paste the URL (address) of the YouTube video using this website to access a transcript of a video: https://www.vidreader.com
Disclaimer: As with any digitally transcribed text, the transcript may contain words that are misspelled. :-)
Happy Halloween week! And, if you live in my area.......brrrrrrrrrrrrr!
