How do I work with the live editor?

Steps to Use the Live Editor:

Once you have activated the live editor for your live stream workflow, follow these steps to begin editing transcripts in real-time:

1. Start Your Stream:

   • Ensure your stream is live.

2. Access the Live Editor:

   • On your workflow editing page, go to the Overview tab.
   • Open the Processing dropdown menu.
   • Copy the URL from "Shared Editor" and paste it into a new browser window.
   • Enter the provided PIN to access the editor.

3. Viewing Transcripts:

   • As the stream runs, the transcripts will appear line by line in the original language.
   • The line currently being spoken is highlighted and synchronized with the player in the bottom left corner.
   • Editable text is displayed in white on a black background. Once the text is sent to output ("egress"), it becomes grey and can no longer be edited.

1. Editing Transcripts:

   • To edit a line, simply click on the transcript where you'd like to make changes. This will pause auto-scrolling.
   • Make your edits directly in the text.
   • When finished, you can restart auto-scrolling by clicking the "A" symbol in the top-right corner, or jump back to the synchronized position with the video by clicking the "Current Paragraph" symbol

Formatting Options:

• You can adjust how the transcript is displayed in the editor by going to the Validation tab.
  Note: These formatting changes only apply to how the text looks in the editor and do not affect the final subtitles.

Subtitles Formatting:

• To modify the final look of the subtitles, use the formatting options under the Burned-In or Closed Caption settings in your workflow's Output configuration page.
• For HLS transcripts, use your video player's options to control how subtitles are displayed.
