For the first time, my Youtube video auto-generated subtitles are not available. There are two possibilities. YouTube may have stopped the free service. Or it is now selective in providing the service to videos that qualify for certain criteria. I don’t know.
All I know is I need that subtitle to be on my YouTube video.
So here is the next best thing to do… Transcribe and Auto-sync.

I will need a laptop, a smartphone, Google Docs, and the internet.
- On the laptop, open Google Docs. Select Tools > Voice Typing.
- On the smartphone, play the video from YouTube.
- On Google Docs, click on the microphone icon to start transcribing.
- Correct any transcription errors.
- Split the transcription into separate lines.
- Copy the edited transcription.
- Go to the YouTube Video Subtitle edit page.
- Click on Add to add new subtitles.
- Select Transcribe and Auto-sync.
- Paste the copied text into the box and hit Set Timings.
Wait for a few minutes. Play the video to check. Correct any timing error. Check my other video on how to adjust caption timings.
