The TechHelp Transcripts

Jerry Fowler

2 years ago

I've mentioned before that I've created a Database that keeps track of the TechHelp videos before. I get the info for the database from your rss feed so I can grab the Published date, Title, Description, web URL Image URL and download it and one or two other things. But I'm looking for an automated way to grab the transcripts. Can you point me to a place I could retrieve those off the web? I haven't found anywhere except in the forum after the video. I'll play around and try to figure how, but need to know where. Thanks
Right now I'm just copy and pasting to a word document and then I can retrieve it after its saved.

I don't know if that would be easily automated. Right now, I'm just posting it as a comment on the tech help page, but I am thinking of indexing them myself and maybe putting them in the actual page data as a long text field.

Just a thought, I pull from the RSS feed right now, but you're talking about putting it on the webpage in the TechHelp area, right? is there or would there be a way for me to pull it from there? Thank you for everything you do, the membership is well worth the wealth of information we get.

Yeah maybe towards the bottom above the keywords. Not sure yet.

You could make another RSS feed of just comments where title = Transcript

	Richard Rost @Reply 2 years ago
I could... if I were planning to keep them like they are. I'm going to move them eventually. They're just stored in a way that's easy for me to move with a query later. :)
