The CCSUBS group invites you to a meet-up at NAB 2024.

Topic
Interoperability challenges in live captioning and subtitling for streaming
When
April 15, 2024 from 13:00 to 17:00
Where
Las Vegas, NV, USA

The subtitling and captioning ecosystem remains fragmented by technology and practices. This makes it expensive, if not impossible, to deliver great experiences. This unique event will bring together 30 technology experts from streaming services, studios, browser vendors, and suppliers to explore these challenges.

The program will be split into three parts:

  • workshop on interoperability challenges in live captioning and subtitling for
    streaming
    , where live means low-latency between authoring and presentation,
    i.e. not pre-recorded;
  • unconference where participants will have the opportunity to bring additional
    problem statements for discussion by the group;
  • discussion on next steps towards a community for timed text experts.

We ask that participants not disclosed publicly the discussions held during the
meet-up without approval from the program committee chairs; and no press is
allowed at the meet-up. We however plan on publishing a report following the
meet-up.

The application deadline is February 10,
2024. Space is limited. A response to your application will be provided on
February 15, 2024.

Thanks to our sponsors there is no registration fee.

Program committee: Pierre-Anthony Lemieux (Sandflow Consulting), Andreas Tai
(a2a11y), Eric Carlson (Apple), Cyril Concolato (Netflix), Flavio Ribeiro
(Netflix), Ken Harrenstien (YouTube) and Bill McLaughlin (AI-Media).
