This is excellent — I love the link between the transcript and the video. Being able to click the text and jump to that point in the video works fluidly; I can read ahead and jump to things I want to see explained visually. The presentation of the transcript is also much better than the broken-line-by-line approach that others such as YouTube take: https://d.pr/i/WvrOX5.

This is the perfect combination of ebook and video for me, and I didn't know Manning was doing this. Some minor feedback:

- I wish the transcript text size could be increased without affecting the rest of the UI (which seems fine). Maybe it can and I missed it, or I need to be logged in?

- I see “pause on try its” in the page options (it's checked and disabled) but couldn't find any videos that use this. This feature sounds like it would greatly enhance the learning experience and it should be part of all videos. I learn a lot more when actively trying things than when passively watching and reading, and few online courses combine video and text transcripts with hands-on opportunities well.

I just bought Algorithms in Motion on the back of this experience, though, (plus a couple of books I'd been considering) and am looking forward to going through the whole course.
