[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Fwd: [tech-vi Announce List] How to Get the Transcript of a YouTube Video

[Ericka]

I came across this and thought “heck I got to tell the KKK group about this.“ After all YouTube was mentioned in somebody’s list of words today. I never knew how to find the transcript of any video so this is totally awesome news to me.
Now if we could get all those picture only YouTube videos of recipes describe or at least a transcript telling us what the heck they’re doing that would be great. Maybe it’s there and I don’t know about it.

Hope this helps or HTH
