SkynetAccessibility Video Subtitle — Django

Publish Captioned Video Content with AI-Powered Subtitles

SkynetAccessibility Video Subtitle is an AI-powered video accessibility plugin that automatically generates synchronized subtitles for website videos using advanced speech recognition. This package is the Django integration — an installable app that adds the registration flow, analytics dashboard, and front-end widget injection to any Django project.

Improve the accessibility of website videos by automatically generating synchronized subtitles using AI-powered speech recognition, without manually creating captions. Supports accessibility initiatives aligned with WCAG 2.1, 2.2, ADA, Section 508, and EAA EN 301 549, where applicable.

Features

• Quick subtitle processing
• Compatible with YouTube, Vimeo, and self-hosted video platforms
• Built-in analytics dashboard (usage, remaining quota, per-language breakdown, video library) at /video-subtitle/
• Automatic front-end widget script injection — no manual <script> tag editing required
• One-time domain registration handled for you, visible in the browser's Network tab
• Simple installation and configuration
• Support for existing and newly published videos
• Supporting over 50+ multi-languages
• Unlimited video subtitle processing throughout the selected plan

Ideal For

Blog videos, news videos, tutorials, landing page videos, announcements, interviews, webinars, and embedded media on any Django-powered site.

Pricing and Plans

Note: Unlimited number of video subtitle processing is available within the selected plan's total playback time. Manage or upgrade your plan any time from the analytics dashboard.

Installation

pip install django-skynetaccessibility-videosubtitle

Setup

1. Add the app and middleware

In settings.py:

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    ...,
    "skynet_video_subtitle",
]

MIDDLEWARE = [
    ...,
    "skynet_video_subtitle.middleware.VideoSubtitleWidgetInjectionMiddleware",
]

The middleware automatically inserts the subtitle widget script into every front-end HTML page — no manual template edits needed.

2. Mount the URLs

In your project's root urls.py:

from django.urls import include, path

urlpatterns = [
    ...,
    path("video-subtitle/", include("skynet_video_subtitle.urls")),
]

3. Run migrations and collect static files

python manage.py migrate skynet_video_subtitle
python manage.py collectstatic

4. Run migrations and collect static files

python manage.py runserver

Add the Script (optional / manual setup)

If you'd rather not use the middleware — for example, on a project that mixes Django with a separately-served front end — you can add the widget script manually instead. Place it in the header or footer of your site's HTML:

<script>
  setTimeout(() => {
    let aioa_script_tag = document.createElement("script");
    aioa_script_tag.src = "https://www.skynettechnologies.com/accessibility/js/video-subtitle/video-subtitle-widget.js";
    aioa_script_tag.id = "aioa-adavs";
    aioa_script_tag.defer = "true";
    document.getElementsByTagName("body")[0].appendChild(aioa_script_tag);
  }, 3000);
</script>

If you do this, remove VideoSubtitleWidgetInjectionMiddleware from MIDDLEWARE to avoid the script being inserted twice.

CORS Policy Configuration

To avoid CORS policy issues, ensure the following URLs are allowed in your website. These URLs should be added to your CORS configuration or trusted domains list.

Instructions

1. Update your server's CORS configuration to include these URLs.
2. Ensure wildcard subdomains (*) are supported where necessary.
3. Verify the application functionality by testing requests to these domains.
4. If issues persist, consult the documentation for CORS configuration guidance.
