A quick test of the new live #captioning feature that is available in Google Hangouts meetings right now #a11y

It worked really well, even with my poor speech quality! Could be very useful when you cannot organise communication supports at short notice
@mmhmmapp Love the app! Created a short video with Auslan (Australian Deaf sign language)
Is it possible to have a full size mannequin mode? As I will need to present using my arms and entire body (or at least the top half) - perhaps a half body silhouette mode would work best?
Who is the accessibility person at @Xero@XeroAPI ???
Getting a bit fed up with the lack of captioning on your video content nor is there anything else provided to bridge the accessibility gap ie transcriptions
@MSNBC@BWilliams@clairecmc You clearly underestimate the incredible amount of work stenographers do to push out verbatim transcripts so you all can do your jobs. It's disheartening to hear 2 people with national voices scoffing @ the profession in such nonchalance & impunity.
Happy International Day of Sign Languages! How good is Auslan! Today to show my support for our deaf community, I’m taking part in the first #AuslanLeadersChallenge and having a go at Auslan. I'd encourage all Australians to give it a try.

@PalaceByronBay 10:30am timeslot on Tuesday isn’t realistic for a family to go to the movies. Kids go to school. Parents work. Staff need to be educated in the different assistive tech. It’s 2019. Let’s be more inclusive. @Echonetdaily#OpenCaptionsForAll

@TrulyJuxta Ok you do that.
Happy to assist once you’ve reviewed them…
BTW you won’t need to upload the videos onto your own server as you can embed the YouTube video on your webpage too…
@TrulyJuxta If you send me a video file and a caption file (.srt) I can “burn” it into the video for you using Submerge and can use the styling you’re after…

@TrulyJuxta Can’t really do too much styling in .srt (SubRip caption file format) as it’s just a very basic caption file format…
Where are you putting the videos? On YouTube? The end users can choose the display styles for the closed captions on there…
@TigerairAU I’ve got TigerAir tickets for this Saturday and Sunday that I can no longer use as I have to go earlier in the week for a funeral.
Any chance of a partial refund?
@Xero Just logged my issue and it’s calculated a response time of 17 hours!!! 😱
As I’ve been waiting for this to resolve itself for the past 2-3 days is there any way you can escalate the issue on my behalf?
@rwilks No problem at all Rob 🙌
Keep in touch if you find out anything else…
Also maybe contact Phillip French? But I’m not sure if he’s still at the Australian Centre for Disability Law
