In a perfect world, your videos wouldn’t change after they’ve been captioned. In reality, updates to the video may require you to start the captioning process again from scratch.

CaptionHub provides tools to help with this, including Ripple edit and Re-align captions, which automate much of the process.


Before you start

If the updated video includes changes to the script, you must first update your captions to match the new version of the video.

Your captions should:

  • Match the updated script (verbatim)
  • Be in the correct order
  • Not require timing adjustments

How to re-align captions

  1. Replace the project video by selecting Replace project video from the Project page drop-down menu.
    1. Notion image
  1. Navigate to the caption editor.
  1. If the script has changed, update your captions so they match the new version of the video (see Before you start above).
  1. From the caption editor drop-down menu, select Re-align captions.

This will initiate an automatic re-alignment process. CaptionHub preserves the content and duration of your captions, while adjusting their in points to match the new audio, bringing them back into sync.
