Download Transcripts

Does anyone know if it is possible to download the entire transcript for a video that has been put on Stream? I wanted to take the transcript and use it to create a short summary for a blog.

I've got a customer who is getting this message when trying to download the .VTT file.  Is it as simple as creating an association with Notepad or similar? Or is there another Windows setting that needs to change?

 

They want to download it so they can then run it through the web utility already mentioned on this thread.

    NicoleReilly I got this same error - have not seen a response to your raising this question. Would love to know what to do as I am currently not able to download the caption transcript...

      Joanne_Roig I discovered that the files had downloaded despite the error message (found them in the Downloads folder on the local machine) - so uploaded those to the web converter and it worked.

        THhank you NicoleReilly  I just checked and did find the files. However, it still wants me to select an app with which to open the file. I selected Word, but with each sentence, there is coded gibberish like the example I pasted below. Would you happen to know what App I can/should select (if not Word) that would download just the pertinent transcript without all of the extraneous codes?

        Thank you!

        Joanne
