EDITOR NOTES
'Download Now' yields the version for Mac OS X 10.5 and later. See 'Related Links' for Mac OS X 10.4.
DESCRIPTION
MovCaptioner keeps repeating a segment of the movie until you are done typing what you hear. Just hit the Return key and it will save your caption and automatically advance to the next few seconds of the movie, allowing you to zip through your captioning tasks in no time flat.
You don't need to be a QuickTime guru, either. The caption track is added automatically with the click of a button. And exporting Transcripts compiles all the captions into one concise text file, with or without timecode. If you can type, you can make your movies and YouTube videos accessible!
Already have transcripts and just need to add them as captions to your movies? MovCaptioner will allow you to import the text as captions, making the job a snap! It will also import other caption formats such as SCC, STL, XML, SRT, QT Text, SBV, and SUB to convert to other supported formats.
Now that Final Cut Pro 7 can import SCC files, creating Line 21 captions just got easier as well. Just import the SCC file MovCaptioner creates into Final Cut Pro when printing to tape and you're done!
- YouTube now supports .SUB and .SRT caption files, which MovCaptioner can export!
- Imports all captions that you type into your movie - You don't need to be a QT guru! If you can type, you can add captions to your movies.
- Creates a transcript of your movie or podcast with the click of a button as well
- Adjustable Repeat Interval control keeps repeating a snippet of the movie until you get it right
- Live preview in QuickTime Player of what you've done at any point in your progress
- Choose your background color, font, font style, font size, and font color
- Save your work and finish it later. No need to do it all in one sitting.
- Allows you to remove previously created text tracks for re-editing
Supports SCC closed captioning for iPods and broadcasting
Supports Flash CS3 captioning
Supports JW Player Timed Text (TT) captions
Import text transcripts into MovCaptioner to use as captions in your movies, either in paragraph form, line-by-line, or as STL format
Also imports SCC, STL, XML, SRT, QT Text and SUB caption format files.
Also, if you go to the website at http://www.synchrimedia.com there is a video that will help you get started using this s/w very quickly.
Let me know if you run into any troubles, please, and thanks for trying MovCaptioner! If you've tried it in the past but it tells you your trial has expired, drop me a line and I can get you a few days extension.
WHAT'S NEW
Version 3.6.9:
- Corrects YouTube SBV imports that only have one "0" in the timecode's hours
- Checks to make sure that the last caption's timecode does not exceed the movie's duration, which can cause problems for Previews, SMIL, and Embedded QT captions.
REQUIREMENTS
- Mac OS X 10.5 or later.
- QuickTime Pro 7.0 or later (for embedded text tracks only).
Note: Snow Leopard users MUST install QuickTime 7 (available on the Snow Leopard install disk) as QuickTime X is not yet fully functional and will not work with MovCaptioner.
- Flip4Mac plugin (free) required for loading Windows Media movies.
- Perian plugin (free) required for loading FLV movies.
- ClosedCaptionImporter plugin for QT (free from Apple) for creating SCC captions.
- Please install by dragging the MovCaptioner folder to your hard drive's Applications folder.

SYNCHRIMEDIA If MovCaptioner should crash on you there is an easy fix. With the new undo/redo MovCaptioner is supposed to create a folder in your MovCaptioner folder called "Temp". It should create this folder on its own to hold scratch files as you work, then it will delete them all when you're done, leaving an empty Temp folder. If it does not create the folder, it may cause the problem. Make sure that your MovCaptioner folder is in your main hard drive's Applications folder, then simply create a folder called "Temp" in your MovCaptioner folder. That should solve the problem. Opening a previously saved project should also create this folder. I've added this folder to the new zip file so it should be there in the future to prevent this.

SYNCHRIMEDIA Snow Leopard users will need to use the installer that comes with Snow Leopard to install QuickTime 7, as QuickTime X is not yet fully functional and will not work with MovCaptioner.

SYNCHRIMEDIA Site is down today 9/30/08 and will be back up tomorrow. If you cannot download MovCaptioner today or view the website, it's because I have exceeded my bandwidth limit for the month. Since people found out that MovCaptioner works with YouTube now, I've had a major influx of visitors to the site. It will be back up tomorrow. Sorry for the inconvenience.

SYNCHRIMEDIA It's in the cue. I haven't actually updated to Leopard yet myself (due to other commitments), but am working on tweaking it to work there as well. Keep checking!

SYNCHRIMEDIA If you've tried MovCaptioner before and when you went to try this version you got a message saying your demo has expired, please try downloading the s/w again. I believe I've corrected this problem. Sorry for the inconenience.

SYNCHRIMEDIA Please delete your old MovCaptioner preferences file prior to using version 1.2 if you've used MovCaptioner before. The old preferences file could cause the app to crash on opening. So go to your USER/Library/Preferences folder and delete the file called MovCationerPrefs and you should be fine. Also, please be sure to view the movie "How To Get Started" on the website: http://www.slidesnow.com/movcaptioner You really should see how to use this before you try it the first time. You should use the Start button instead of the movie's play button and don't click the Cue Next button until you know what it's really for. There is also a brief How To Use MovCaptioner file that comes with the app that's worth your time to look at as well.
