Technology Notes

Transcripts

• Zoom (otter.ai) - Audio transcripts are saved in VTT format
• YouTube - Audio transcripts saved in SRT format
• VTT to SRT Conversion [Python Script]

Zoom Meetings

Establishing Zoom meetings for the conference will need to fall on someone with administrative credentials for the temporary Zoom licenses.

• Options within Zoom
• Meeting Types: Keynote, Prerecorded preconference, Q&A
• Cloud transcription enabled, join before host

YouTube

YouTube uploads take a LONG time. We’ll need to settle on which YouTube account to use, and then run through all of the verification checks to be able to upload videos longer than 15 minutes.

• Streamline the process
• how to get the videos to us
• Who uploads the videos
• Batch scripts

Posters: CSV to YML tooling

• Do we need two fresh 'conference' @alaoweb.org accounts for Zoom licenses, hosting videos, etc.
