Another option for working with .flv files for playback in Flash is
Captionate (http://buraks.com/captionate/). It works a little
differently, in that it encodes the caption data in the playback stream of
the .flv, which has its benefits, but is not the standard way of doing
things. You can also export the captions in XML, or import the captions
from one .flv to another. Which is useful if you target multiple
bandwidths.

Hi all,
Has anyone had experience using MAGpie (or another such program) to
produce xml files that contain captions and time stamps? I'm researching
ways to caption the video clips that my company uses in online courses.
What we do is use a Flash video player ( a .swf) to load and play various
external .flv files. So I'm looking for an efficient way to produce xml
files that would work in concert with the Flash video player.
Thanks for any light you may be able to shed,
Lisa
