Elan

There is a LINUX version of the software - I didn't know that it didn't work so well. I think using ELAN is great and the support offered by the developers is really excellent, so perhaps you might consider selling your soul to the OS devil(s) just a little? :–)

Note, however, if you do not use a computer with an OS from one of the two hegemoniacal superpowers bent on world domination (i.e. if like me you use some "flavour" of LINUX), ELAN is much harder to get working fully and properly...

I'd LOVE to use Elan more ... when I can get it to work, I love it.  But the learning curve and I are not on good terms.  Is there a SLLing-L Elan support group in the offing?  :D

My preference is ELAN.  I tried SignStream once, but it was very limited compared to ELAN, and as far as I know is not in active development.

Hi.  I was wondering what software people prefer for coding and/or transcribing videos of sign language.  I know every program has its pros and cons.

Thank you,

"Too often we honor swagger and bluster and wielders of force; too often we excuse those who are willing to build their own lives on the shattered dreams of others. ... [T]here is another kind of violence, slower but just as deadly destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is the violence of institutions; indifference and inaction and slow decay."
