Transcription Overview
Subtitles and transcripts are automatically created for each video you collect with or upload to Vocal Video.
You can also set your Collector to transcribe videos in a different language. Just go to your Collector > Advanced, and set the language. To learn more about localizing your Collector, see this article.
You can access transcripts in you Responses and Published Videos. To see the transcripts for your responses simply choose any response and click on it and you will see the AI generated transcript to the right of each video scene.
Similarly, to see the transcript for any published video click on the video and then click on AI Subtitles in the right side menu. You can also just click on the text box around the subtitles in the bottom of any video scene to bring up the transcript editor.
All edits that you make to the subtitles are reflected on the video transcription that becomes available when you publish your video.
When you view your video’s public page, the transcript appears on the bottom. If you decide not to make the subtitles visible in the video, they will not show up at the bottom of the public page. The transcription will be split up by video clips.
From this same page you can also download the entire transcript in .txt format.
