Online Video Publishing

Robin Good: Amara / Universal Subtitles is a free web-based service that allows anyone to easily sub-title and add captions to any video. 

As long as you have a URL of a published video, Amara makes it very easy to caption it. The clip may be on a video sharing site or embedded in custom video player and Amara can still get to it.

Amara is made up of three main parts:

a) A subtitle creation and viewing tool (aka the widget)

b) A collaborative subtitling website

c) An open protocol for subtitle search/delivery

All tools inside Amara are free and open-source.

Supported video players and video sharing sites include:

• Flowplayer
• JW Player
• Firefox native player
• Chrome native player
   

• YouTube
• Vimeo
• Dailymotion
• blip.tv
