Profuz Digital, the developer behind the SubtitleNEXT, NEXT-TT and Profuz LAPIS localisation platforms, is pleased support the Media for All 10 Conference with SubtitleNEXT branded as official Silver Sponsor product of the show.
The 10th edition of Media For All will take place from 5 – 7 July at the Stadscampus of the University of Antwerp in Belgium. Organised by the TricS research group and the OPEN Expertise Centre for Accessible Media and Culture, the event’s focus will be on the role of human agents in the translation process. Participants will explore how the roles of users, translators, policy makers, industry and educators have changed over the past decade, under the influence of digitisation and globalisation. Media For All 10 aims to map the changing profiles of stakeholders in the field of AVT and MA, practice and research.
Profuz Digital will participate in an industry round table managed by MESA on the first day of the conference, in addition to a dedicated exhibition space where the team will demonstrate features available in SubtitleNEXT’s new version 5.12, as well as the latest developments and additions to the NEXT-TT platform.
SubtitleNEXT is a popular timed-text platform that produces accurate and fast subtitling and captioning results in real-time and offline across all media formats. SubtitleNEXT, when combined with business management system Profuz LAPIS transforms into formidable hybrid platform NEXT-TT. It gives operators the best of both worlds – on the desktop and Cloud environments
SubtitleNEXT is currently the only subtitling system to provide extensive vertical text features, including improved vertical video support that allows for smooth aspect ratios settings. Its new vertical writing proficiency accommodates East Asian languages such as Chinese, Korean and Japanese, and offers comprehensive support of vertical text in every possible direction – from right to left, left to right, top to bottom, and bottom to top – along with all the attributes contained within every single language that exists on earth. Emphasis (boutens) and rubies which are the annotations used in Japanese and other East Asian languages that define the pronunciation of a word are fully supported too.
SubtitleNEXT also enables the import and export of subtitles in the all-embracing LambdaCap format which is one the most widely used subtitling formats in Korean, Chinese and Japanese languages.
Other feature highlights in the new SubtitleNEXT 5.12 version that will be showcased at Media for All include the ability to export subtitling error lists in CSV files; Teletext issue checks and closed captioning processing times; including the addition of a speedy “Quick Styles” toolbar default setting, Raised or Top styles when required.
These remarkable new features in the new version 5.12 have been made available to all SubtitleNEXT users of the SubtitleNEXT desktop version and SubtitleNEXT LAPIS version used in conjunction with the NEXT-TT hybrid platform. NEXT-TT also boasts a new “tree view” of projects, tasks and other folders, advanced filtering upgrades, enhanced layout, customised filters, quick searches and much more.
