papyromancer / iacc-promo-subtitles

Let's translate these subs into as many languages as is possible.  Just copy the en.srt, translate, let me know you've 
done it, and I'll give you commit access to the repository.

If you want to make changes to the English script, fork away ;)

I recommend VLC for viewing these subtitles.

http://videolan.org/

Once you've cloned the repository you'll need to download the video file that goes along with these subtitles.  

http://papyromancer.s3.amazonaws.com/IACC-Promo.mp4

Just add it to the folder... but don't ever add it to the repository... it's too big for my free GitHub account.

To view the current English render with subtitles burned in visit http://papyromancer.net/posts/7 .

Here are all the languages which still need subtitles:

Don't worry if you don't know how to use Git, you can download the English subtitles here: 
<http://papyromancer.s3.amazonaws.com/IACC-Promo.EN.srt> and when you've completed a translation, just send me a text 
file of the translation as an attachment to an email addressed to papyromancer@papyromancer.net. 

If, on the other hand, you do know how to use Git, I'd recommend performing your translations in a simple text editor... 
unless you need to re-time the subtitles, in that case use Jubler <http://www.jubler.org/>, it rocks.

I will use FFmpegX <http://www.ffmpegx.com/> and mencoder <http://www.mplayerhq.hu/> to burn the titles onto the video.

Phone me at (601) 255-4393 or email papyromancer@papyromancer.net if you need any assistance assisting me ;)

If you help translate these subtitles a combined donation of $1500 will be split between The Internet Archive and 
Creative Commons in the names of all the translators.

I've had to compile mplayer and mencoder for OS-X to be able to script subtitle burn in.

Using Mac Ports: 

# sudo port install fontconfig freetype x264 faac
# sudo port install MPlayer +osd +fribidi +theora +xvid +x264 +faac +dv +faad
