I definitively prefer reading over watching video (and I've got the feeling I'm not alone). Wouldn't spend a single buck for this though.

To publish the slides along with a text version of the talk would be an alternative.

You're not alone. I can read a transcript far, far faster than watching a video.

The caption I'd like to see is the name of the speaker during the live transmissions.

With FF, when watching native videos (webm for example), you can increase the speed of the video preserving the voice pitch. I usually use 1.5x speed and normally is very understandable :)

That might be the case, but what's the fun in doing that.

Ideal situation is to have slide on the screen, and a video in the upper-left corner. But I guess that requires some video mixing...

Steno? You can type in realtime? Then why the hell did I
spend time learning to type using a normal keyboard
