Sorry to hear that it was painful for you! :-(
For, what it's worth, here is how it went for me…
I started before someone added the instructions on the pad, so I went
straight to watching a tuto on YT:
« Aegisub tutorial - Timing Subtitles - FAST METHOD »
The guy suggested to first do the transcription and then the video sync'.
This is what I did using the good old Vim. Took me 1h30 for 17min of video.
Once the transcription file was loaded into Aegisub I discovered that the
keybings were right under my right hand fingers! I use a French Bépo
layout, and I can access D-S-G-F with only 2 fingers! 8-)
This allowed me to use my mouse (I use my mouse with my left hand) to
move the start (right click) and end (left click) of a section.
Muscle memory did the rest! s…d…left click…d…g *ad nauseam* :-)
I wouldn't go so far as to say that it was the best evening of my life,
but it was not the most painful 3 hours either! … actually, the fact
that the talk was super interesting and the speaker's English was really good
helped a lot! Thanks Lars-Dominik! :-)
