Re: [Avid-L2] Exporting an h.264 file from Avid with embedded closed captions?

Looks like a billable opportunity for you to provide the service of uploading to that client.  I have a couple clients I do final deliveries for.

OK, if you don't know, no one will :-)

I don't know if my contact people at the client's are the ones that do the work or not, but they seem particularly non-tech oriented. Just wanted to make it as simple as possible for them. "See, here's one file. Upload it to your channel and you're done."  That's all.

Not that I know of, but what is the problem for them to upload a second file?

A client has been broadcasting on a Japanese cable station, and I have handled their open caption Japanese subtitles; SubCap works great.

They are going to stop broadcasting, and use only YouTube from now on. They want me to continue to do their subtitling, but want the Japanese put in as closed captions so YouTube viewers can turn them off and on at will.

I realize I can deliver a video file and separate CC file, but would like to give them one h264 file that they can upload to YouTube, and have YouTube recognize the captions.

Is that possible?

Thanks in advance for any and all info!
