Fix a word in the captions

Correct a misspelled name, remove a stray word or add a missing one, and only that clip is made again.

What it is

Names, places and unusual words are where captions most often go wrong. Edit captions shows every word of the clip so you can type over a wrong word, remove one, or add one that was missed.

The captions stay in time with the speech, only that clip is made again, and it does not use a talk.

How to use it

  1. Open a talk from your Library.
  2. Press the ··· button on the clip and choose Edit captions.
  3. Type over a wrong word, press the × on a word to remove it, or press the + between two words to add one.
  4. Check the line under Captions will read.
  5. Press Save & re-render, then refresh the page after a minute or two.

Good to know

  • If a name is wrong every week, add it once to Words we say in Branding instead. Words we say is part of the Growth plan.
  • An older clip may take a couple of minutes longer while we fetch its original footage again.
  • If the menu says Captions can't be re-rendered, the clip's source is gone. Running the talk again gives a fresh set and uses a talk.

Where to find it

Library, open a talk, then a clip's ··· menu.
