Description Joachim Noreiko 2005-10-15 09:17:08 UTC 
Version details: 2.12 live CD

I know this isn't strictly a GNOME issue, but I can't find anywhere on the
Creative Commons site to report it, and this error reflects badly on GNOME.

In the video file 'Building_on_the_Past.ogg' in the 'Video and Music from
Creative Commons' folder on the desktop, there is a spelling mistake. At at
0.39, there is a large caption: "let's you build"
This should read "lets you build".

Just not something I'm going to fix. Will take patches, as I'm sure will CC (that would be preferred.)
Comment 2 Joachim Noreiko 2006-05-08 14:35:28 UTC 
Any ideas on how to patch this?

Do we know who the creator of the video is?
Comment 3 Joachim Noreiko 2006-07-15 18:48:55 UTC 
I've had a thought about this.

Use this problem as an *advantage* to highlight the very thing the video speaks about: instead of trying to neatly change the text, stick a red circle on the incorrect apostrophe and add note to the side of the screen "Lets you correct mistakes!"

If there's such a thing as a video editor that will let me draw in individual frames, I could probably do this.
