Video and subtitles

Hoi,
I am at the moment at a book sprint about Open Translation Tools. One of the
topics in the books is how to deal with video. Subtitling and dubbing are
the two obvious techniques to make video relevant for multiple languages.
Kaltura was mentioned and, Kaltura has combined its platform with SubPLY for
its subtitling. As I understand it at this moment, SubPLY is proprietary.
Does this mean that we do not have a way to subtitle the videos that we hope
to host in the near future.
Thanks,
GerardM

Re: Video and subtitles [In reply to]

The SubPLY system is for kaltura's open source flash based solution. The
ogg based solution is different... Any solution deployed on wikimedia
projects should of course be open source...
Clearly more work is to be done on multi-lingual support but you can see
an example of non-congress-video wiki-timed-text on the public prototype
