- albert_e 3y agoI always had this idea in the back of my head -- watching tons of AWS re:invent and other videos that are technical talks using a slide deck. Kudos for shipping! Not able to get this to work -- will try again later in case the issue is temporary.
- faizan1041 3y agoHi Albert, can you paste the Youtube URL you are trying? This is still under development and many features will be launched soon.
- albert_e 3y agoSorry for the late response and thanks for checking. I forgot what I tried last time but here is another youtube video I tried-- this worked but gave me slightly unexpected results. Video : https://youtu.be/RuRmq7VyCaQ https://youtu.be/RuRmq7VyCaQ Slides: blob:https://streamslide.io/99258fa2-299a-4db1-9ded-12db2a74923f#toolbar=0&navpanes=0 https://streamslide.io/99258fa2-299a-4db1-9ded-12db2a74923f#... The tool detected 200 Slides instead of just 5-10 because the presenter used a pointer / cursor highlighter to point at each line. Maybe you can add a user control to set Sensitivity of slide transition detection -- how much of a change and what type of change from frame to frame should count as a new slide. Another advanced feature could be grouping all similar looking Slides in series after the fact and presenting a choice to user which one(s) to keep or discard from the set of near duplicates.
