<P><FONT SIZE=2>Sitting here watching the Cup Final with the BBC subtitles....<BR>
<BR>
Quite amusing to see the mistakes that appear on the subtitles<BR>
<BR>
“18” = a team<BR>
“Rock Star” = Rob Stiles<BR>
<BR>
A well as some random words that were obviously wrong inserted into the text. Random instances of the word “bacon” showed up a few times.<BR>
<BR>
How does Auntie handle subtitles for live events like this? Voice recognition software? Some poor sole typing words in making mistakes? Team of especially trained monkeys?<BR>
<BR>
I'd be impressed if it was VR software as there were some pretty inaudible accents being interviewed.<BR>
<BR>
Anyone know??<BR>
<BR>
Thanks<BR>
