Introducing Transcripts

You must enable Transcripts in the settings, on each device that you wish to use them on, before you can use them.

You can read how to do this here.

Transcripts allow you to have a copy of your captioning session once the session has ended.

Transcripts can be useful for:

• Taking notes

• Being able to read back over what has happened or been discussed

• To attach to notes that have been given to you so that you can read the instruction as well as the notes

• Adding captions to videos

• And many more uses...

It is important that you inform others that they will be recorded when using Transcripts, as their voice will be turned into text and saved.

Zip Captions Transcripts will also allow you to export them into the following file formats:

• SRT (A subtitle file format which can be used with video playback sites like YouTube and Vimeo)

• TXT (A plain text format, which can be opened with your text editor)

• VTT (A format similar to SRT but more customisable)
