MuseScore in Minutes captions: video 5 - 11
I'm looking for assistance to create captions for the MuseScore in Minutes video tutorials. Currently video 1-4 have captions but we lack the captions for video 5-11. The first step to create the captions is to simply make an English transcript of the video. Is there someone who wants to help with this?
All you need is a text editor and you play the youtube video while typing out the transcript. Youtube allows you to slower the speed of the video which comes in handy.
Once the transcript is made, it's a small step to create captions from them via the youtube interface. Next the captions will be uploaded to our translation server at Transifex so the community can translate them. Finally, the translated captions are uploaded back to youtube on the MuseScoreHowTo channel.
By offering captions, both in English as well as other languages, we drastically lower the barrier for newcomers to learn how to use MuseScore.

Wouldn't it be quite handy to get those captions directly from the horses mouth, i.e. ask Dr. George Hess for them? Most probably he had a script for producing them.

George has a transcript to lead him through the video, but he gives himself the freedom to deviate from it. As I did the captioning of the first 4 videos myself, I learnt that doing the transcripts from scratch was easier as opposed to fixing the ones I received.

I take advantage to ask the question again:

Thx Jojo & Shoichi! Fixed.
@Cmajor just wanted to let you know that all your transcripts are finally turned into captions and they are uploaded both to youtube as well as transifex where the captions are now being translated. Thanks again for your work.
Next up is an automated upload of the translated captions from transifex to youtube: #52866: Service to upload translated captions from Transifex to YouTube API
That's teamwork :), thanks for notification Thomas.
