Nemeth is based primarily on presentation since that is all that sighted
persons typically have access to so the use of Presentation MathML is
actually more appropriate than Content MathML would be.
There are several experienced sighted Nemeth transcribers on this list and
while not certified I am quite familiar with Nemeth. Rather than a video if
you would post typeset print math and the corresponding Nemeth somewhere I'm
sure at least one of us would be glad to check it for you.
However, it would probably be better to check your translations with
existing examples. If you scroll down to the last PDF link on this page for
BANA UEBC Sampler 2 you can download a large number of
professionally-transcribed examples of print math and the corresponding
Nemeth braille. While the PDF file is intended for sighted persons and shows
the braille as simulated braille, the corresponding electronic braille files
are available on the same page.
