Editing a Transcript
- Jun 21, 2017
Thanks Matt, glad you ar liking Stream.
Right now we don't have a transcription editor in Stream directly. However you can download the auto-generated caption file, edit it locally in a text editor and re-upload it.
So it would be as follows...
- After the autogenerated caption file is created and shows the transcript mode on the video.
- Edit the video
- Options section > Captions > "Download file"
- Open up the .VTT file downloaded in a text editor, make corrections, etc.
- Go back and edit the video > Options > Captions
- Uncheck the "autogenerate a caption file" check box.
- "Upload a caption" file button.
- Upload your edited .VTT file.
We'll then use your new custom caption file for the transcript mode and deep search.
NOTE: We'll be adding ability to edit the transcript direclty in Stream in the future as I know the above isn't intuitive or easy.
Hi Marc
I do not see download transcripts, on download video.
Can you help me?
Thank you
Sandi
I was able to find a link to download but is full of extra script. Any suggestions on a quick way to edit or download in a specific program?
