I wanted to add transcripts to video nodes and figured a new tab would fit nicely. The attachment is a tarball of the whole plugin module (meant to go in the plugin directory within video module - it is not a standalone module) so remove the ".patch" at the end of the file. Unfortunately I don't think I can create a patch that has a new directory in it (or I simply can't figure out how to) so I had to attach the whole thing.

The plugin simply adds a Transcript text area to the video node edit page. When transcript text has been added a new tab (transcript) will appear on the node. The transcript tab will filter the text with the same filter that the main node body is using. The plugin does have an install file that creates one new field in the video table for the text.

*sigh* One typo fixed that was sort of crucial. ;-)

This is a good plugin but with CCK we can easily add such a feature, great work!

I have created a related issue for the jw_player module. In my case, the web authors/editors want to do their own video conversion, because they already have Camtasia Studio, however I named the field in a way that relates to the way that the Video module supports posters for videos.

This feature adds the transcript as a form/database column for video, but a file entity reference to the transcript would be more important for me. Due to Federal Government requirements, my users will need to format the text below the video, or in another link to the video.

Also, is there player support for this transcript feature as it has been done?
