CHANGING THE SUBTITLING SCRIPT Limecraft
BY KIRSTY HAZLEWOOD
The latest update to Limecraft’s cloud-based media and entertainment production and delivery platform, Version 2025.5, adds new features aimed at improving accessibility and compliance. The release builds on recent advances in production and delivery automation, introducing enhancements to content sharing and subtitling workfl ows. Maarten Verwaest,
Co-founder and CRO, Limecraft, said: “Following recent major advances in the platform’s production and delivery automation capabilities, update 2025.5 delivers important improvements to accessibility, content sharing and subtitling. “It includes enhancements
to our subtitling workfl ows, allowing subtitlers to benefi t from a new character-based method for indicating speaker changes. This new technique automates the insertion of speaker labels, reducing manual corrections to make subtitles more representative and accessible.” He added: “It complements the platform’s existing colour- coded speaker options and is fully customisable in terms of formatting, spacing and positioning.”
The new mechanism is said to
greatly reduce the time needed for proofreading and post-editing, especially in long-form content with frequent speaker changes. According to Limecraft, the
result is a faster subtitling process, reduced fatigue for editors and fewer chances for costly mistakes downstream. 7.D21

mixing technology, as well as introducing its Aqua audio QC probes, which can be added at any point in the production chain in MIXaiR. The probes enable easy monitoring and control of many standard audio QC processes such as phase anomalies and loudness, but also include monitoring of more nuanced audio attributes such as dialogue intelligibility, profanity detection and automatic language and subject matter detection.
Also included in Aqua is Salsa’s audio anomaly detector that can identify audio problems such as silence, distortion, glitching, wind and rain noise and other unwanted audio elements. 8.B77f
