Can't vouch for the integrity of this video due to no subtitles for me, but here's another one:

That's a bummer u/Deaf_MAGA_Pede . Surely your computer can convert speech to text? The technology has improved enormously in the last few years.

Oh I was referring to the subtitles feature like YouTube's. Odyssey doesn't have that feature.
I do use Google Chrome for the speech to text part as I have used that with many short clips but it's not always reliable. It often misspells a word or two, use the wrong word ("affect" for "effect", "quart" for "court" and on) and clips off the last part of the dialogue when the video ends.
For example, if the person said, "I'll go to the store to buy milk and eggs" then the video ends, the automated captions transcribed it as, "I'll go to the store to buy" and stop transcribing.
Plus I was trying to find the video fast and I didn't even get to watch the whole thing mainly because Odyssey don't have the subtitles feature. I had to say that in case if the video had anything offensive or had content that wasn't related to what the title said, a.k.a. clickbait videos.
Noted. I understand the problems. Every week I contact a friend via Skype. He has MS and is profoundly deaf. Sometimes the Skype translations are hilarious!
