This article explains how to order captions and other 3Play Media services for recorded videos in a Cvent account.
Step 1 - Click Order Services
After logging into your 3Play Media project, click on Order Services located in the upper left-hand corner of the page.
Step 2 - Choose Main Service
Select the default service Transcription and Captioning to have 3Play Media create your captions from scratch. If you already have a transcript that you would like 3Play Media to sync with a Cvent asset, select Alignment, here is more info on Alignment. Automated Speech Recognition (ASR) is also an option.
Step 3 - Select Turnaround Time
Next select your turnaround service level.
See more information on turnaround service levels.
Step 4 - Add Order Instructions (optional)
After selecting a turnaround service level, check the box if you want to include order instructions.
Note that order instructions are optional so click Next without checking the box, should they not be necessary.
Please note that the purpose of order instructions is not to provide instructions to inform the transcription process but only for providing spellings that are not easily researchable or cannot be inferred by content itself.
Provide correct spellings of product names, people, technical vocabulary, acronyms, and other terminology occurring in the content that is unique, propriety, or not widely known to better help with the transcription process.
Order instructions can be attached as a PDF or in a 500 character limit note.
