Great programme - hope I can find my way around using it.
I watched one of the tutorial videos - but had problems hearing the dialogue (I have a hearing disability)

Are there ways of moving characters around the set using keyboard commands?

Apologies if this has been covered elsewhere

Hi Mike, thanks for trying Muvizu.

We are looking to add subtitles, unfortunately YouTube doesn't understand Scottish people so we are having to do it manually.

You can't move the characters around with the keyboard at the moment - but we are looking at alternative movement methods.

If you have any other problems please let us know.

Take care,
-Jim.

Hi Mike,

Thanks for getting in touch. I'm sorry that you are having trouble with the tutorials.
As Jim mentioned, the automatic captioning on YouTube isn't very useful, so we're going to have to do it manually.
It's a big task.
I did a small trial with one of the tutorials, using Overstream (http://www.overstream.net).
Is this any better for you?
Let me know your thoughts on this, feedback would be really handy. It's very important for us to be as accessible as possible.
Not only for hearing-impaired users such as yourself, but also because many of our users don't have English as a first language.



Cheers!

Emily.

Emily - Thank You thank you thank you.
For some reason, the sound quality is a lot better on Overstream, but having the captions as well, made everything some much easier.

Mike

P.S Keep up the good work

No problem at all Mike,

It may be some time before we get through them all.

Each time we release a new version of the app, we've re-made the tutorials - so the whole process takes some time.

The audio isn't perfect quality in the tutorials, and I'm no audio expert, so this may be something that we need to look at to improve the usability.

Glad that these titles helped you though, please get in touch with any other questions or feedback you might have.

Good luck with your first Muvizu video!!
