The National Centre for Accessible Media has developed a Media Access Generator (MAGpie) which helps you to add captioning to your video. This can be downloaded free from http://main.wgbh.org/wgbh/pages/ncam/webaccess/magpie/index.html

I don't know if this was what you were looking for but hope it helps.

Subject: Providing captioning from a text file during a web cast?


Hi group,

Does anyone know how I can use previously prepared text as part of my
captioning for the hearing impaired during a web cast?

Most of the talks for the presentations during an award ceremony are available
in word processing files. We want to make use of this material to generate
the text for our close captioning. Can anyone give me suggestions of software
and file formats that I should use? Please provide any advice and lessons
learn that you may have on doing this.

Thanks
Mark Rew
