KVStudio includes a feature that allows you to import a 3Play Media transcript into your presentation template. For presentations where you want to have a transcript included, choose one of the KnowledgeVision standard templates that has an area for the transcript to be placed into. 

When the transcript is put into your presentation, viewers will be able to read along with the presentation. The template also provides a Transcript Search Bar allowing viewers to search for keywords in the transcript and navigate directly to the time in that presentation where that keyword appears.

Below are the steps involved in creating the transcript and importing it into your presentation template.

 

Step 1- Copy the Video URL

Log into your KVStudio account and navigate to the published project you want transcribed. At the top of the page, click on the tab Step 2: Select Videos.  Next click either Upload Video or Select another option and the following screen is displayed:

Supported links that can be processed

For this method to work links must point to downloadable files that are transferred over HTTP. 
These links will end with a media file extension like .mov, .mp3, or .flv.

Examples of links that can be processed:

http://mywebsite/myvideo.mp4 
http://mywebpage/interview.aiff 

See more information about supported formats and codecs.

YouTube links are also supported as long as they link directly to the video and are public within your YouTube account. If a YouTube link is copied from a web browser you the "s" may need to be removed from HTTPS to ensure the link can be be processed. 

Step 7- Choose Service

From the Service tab select either the English Transcription and Captioning default service or Alignment.

Choose the default service to have a transcript created from scratch using your media file (video or audio) as the reference and combines a technological approach with human clean up. Upon completion of the transcription process the file will be available for download in a variety of caption and transcript file formats. 

Choose Alignment service if you already have a transcript that you would like to have synced with a media file. Once complete the file will be available for download in all of the same caption and transcript file formats as if the media file had been submitted for the default service.

 After choosing your service click Continue.

Step 8- Select Turnaround Time
