It is quite simple - audio / video plays on the left, there's keyboard shortcuts for pause-play-go back some seconds, insert time-code, etc. and one big text area on the right to transcribe. It saves the file as SRT, or you can also just cut-paste that text and save it. It uses the html <video> tag to play the media, so does not work for mp3 files, unfortunately. If your files are either wav or ogg, it should work for you. (better than VLC and manually pausing or something at least). If you also install the http://firefogg.org plugin, it will encode an audio to file to ogg for you and *should* then work no matter what format your files are. You can download and install the plugin from http://files.pad.ma/speedtrans. If you do use it, would love to hear feedback. We have been using it for about a year and a half now, so it is quite stable, but if you report any bugs, I'll give you a cookie in addition to fixing it :P All the best - and if anyone else is looking for audio / video transcription software, please do try this tool - is always nice to have more people using / testing it :P - and please feel free to ask me for any help / questions. cheers, Sanjay p.s. if anyone is interested in viewing the source code: http://code.pad.ma/speedtrans > thanks > ram > > -- > ubuntu-in mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in > >
