SlideTalk.net is a new web service which can easily transform a static slide-based set of slides into a video presentation with a voice-over track, without you needing to do much beyond writing what you need to be said. For free. SlideTalk.net, is a Swedish startup that has created a web-based app that allows you to upload a presentation and to add a professional voice track to it, by simply writing the text that you want to be spoken on each slide. That text will be then converted by the Acapela powerful text-to-speech engine before your slides and the accompanying voice track will be encoded into a new video that can be easily uploaded to YouTube. I have been really impressed by the range of voices available (70) and the international languages supported by this system (30) powered by the Acapela TTS engine. The artificial voices sound reasonably realistic and human to my ear. Not only. It is also quite easy to "personalize" the TTS (text-to-speech) results, by having the option to switch voices at any time, to control reading speed, and other factors by just using specific commands within the text accompanying each slide. (Read more about this here: http://slidetalk.net/Home/EditTips) Free to use while in Beta. Free and paid versions after launch.

...enable viewer-created translations and captions on your YouTube channel.
Robin Good's insight:
Crowd-subtitling platform Amara.org has launched a free service that allows any YouTube creator to invite viewers to subtitle their videos and sync the subtitles to their YouTube account. This is the first-ever subtitle crowdsourcing option available for free to YouTube users, letting them invite viewers to translate their videos into dozens of languages. (Amara is also launching a professional version of the feature for companies and organizations that want to take their channel global.) How it works: For YouTube users, the functionality is simple. They visit Amara.org, connect their YouTube channel, and any videos in their YouTube channel will include a link inviting users to help subtitle. When subtitles are created by a user, for example a Spanish translation, they will be synced automatically back to the YouTube account and will be available on any site in which the video is embedded.

ClipGrab is a great free app for Mac that allows you to easily download any video clip in full resolution from YouTube, Vimeo, Dailymotion and several other video sharing sites. Particularly useful for video curators, journalists and reporters, ClipGrab makes very easy to grab and download at the best possible quality almost any video found online, while simplifying the process and time it takes to do it. I have tried and tested it and I must say that it works flawlessly. You provide the URL of the video, select the video format (.MP4, .WMV, Ogg Theora or .MP3/Ogg) and the quality level (from 240P to 720P) you want and then ClipGrab does the rest by saving the final, converted file on your selected folder. ClipGrab can also search and find instantly video clips on any topic you want, saving you the time that it would take to open another browser window, search for it and grab its URL. Available in multiple languages. Excellent. Recommended. P.S.: Please support this free tool and the good work of its creator with your small optional donation.

The new video codec standard promising reduced file sizes, better compression and faster downloads its making its final rounds of approval while being gradually integrated into new products (the iPad already does). Within a year or two it will be on our video export option list. From the blog at Dreamtek.tv: "HEVC (sometimes called H.265) succeeds H.264 and is set to become essential to the development and distribution of high resolution video formats, such as Ultra High Definition. The first devices to deploy HEVC support are expected to reach market early this year, Rovi Corporation announced at CES this month. The standard is expected to be ratified in early 2013." "Once deployed, video consumers should be able to download video at the same quality as today in up to half the time, using up half the storage space when they do." "HEVC/H.265 supports resolutions up to 8,192-x-4,320 and delivers double the data compression ratio of H.264. Where H.264 supports a maximum macroblock of 16-x-16 pixels, HEVC delivers up to 64-x-64 pixels."
