Interactive Video Transcripts Now also Supported in Playlists

20 November 2020 / Mária Stašová / Leave a Comment

The unique functioning of the Interactive Video Transcript feature is one of the main sources of praise for FV Player. Yet, we are always trying to make even the best features better than before.

That is why we’re happy to announce that the Interactive Video Transcript feature is now supported in playlists too. We have also added a “Preserve original formatting” setting which prevents automated formatting of the transcript text.

To get these features, you have to use FV Player Pro 7.4.38.727. beta version, or higher.

When I started Foliovision, my idea was that I wanted to create a company that I would like to work in, and also a company that I would like to be a client of.

If you ask me how is Foliovision making the world a better place or how are we making the web work for you, I would say that we use all the open source and open standards so our products are not going to lock you inside of some box, like, in past we moved hundreds of websites out of restrictive content management system into Wordpress, into open source world. The secret is that we are doing things differently here. Our clients aren’t just numbers for us, because we are crafting something personal for each of them. And this really makes a difference. All of our clients have really great stories and they all deserve to be told so it’s up to me to find a way to tell them online. We start by finding something special about the client and then we turn this special thing into something that’s a part of every marketing campaign we do. We are a small and strong group of like-minded young professionals trying to achieve our company's goal, which is to make our clients happier and to make their daily life easier. Quick reactions are very important to our clients. That is why we make our services available at all times. What making the web work for you means to me is that whatever the level of technology our clients come to us with, we will make this sophisticated and ever-changing internet technology accessible to them. The part of my job is training clients to actually use their new websites, so I'm not just creating the websites for them, I also guide them through what the website does and how it works. We have a plugin tracking the number of post or website shares. Several social media channels have recently limited the access to this data so we had to adjust our plugin - and we were one of the first ones to accomplish this. With FV Player we are doing the cutting edge work, we haven’t seen some of our features in any other product, for example the way we improved the embedding for Youtube and Vimeo so that you can use all of our advanced features - I think that it’s pretty unique. Some of our clients actually like to be very involved on the technology side, but many of them, actually they’re just publishers, people who know a lot about cakes, or they’re people who know a lot about baseball, or soccer, or Middle Eastern politics, but they don’t know very much about how Internet technology works. But for all of them we’re able to make it possible for them to publish at the highest possible level with all the same tools that the sites like The New York Times, or the Guardian or any of these other huge sites enjoy.

Preserving Original Formatting

In order to prevent automated formatting of transcript text, go to the subtitles tab in the shortcode editor of individual videos in the playlist and tick the “Perserve original formatting” box under the Transcript field.

This setting comes in especially handy for videos with many dialogues. In the playlist below, there is the same video twice. The video is one of Vimeo staff picks and the subtitles are automatically parsed from Vimeo.

In the first video, the setting is not enabled, therefore, the transcript text shows up in large chunks. In the second one, the setting is enabled and the transcript distinguishes the dialogue clearly:
