Is it still true that when your video is shown in a Google Video Carousel your page is not shown in the normal SERPS?
-
Hello everybody,
I'm trying to decide whether it's worth it to invest time in optimizing my video's to appear in the video carousels on Google. I read that once your video is in the carousel, your normal snippet in the SERPS is removed. Is this still the case?
Thank you for helping out!

That is not true at all, Klaver, just as Kenn Gold just proved in his answer above.
I just searched for "seo tips" and found that both Neil Patel and Backlinko have videos in the video carousel and have a page ranking in the top ten as well. Neil Patel also has the featured snippet at the top of the page as well.

I just was able to search on a video that we have on YouTube and also is highly featured on a specific page on www.
Searching the video title shows the video in the carousel at the top from YouTube, and a native link to my www site where the video is featured at the top of the SERP.
Hope that helps.

Does anyone have any best practices for video transcription strategy.

Does anyone know how that's done? I've also seen keywords added into those? Any recommendations around that. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
