Captions and transcription

Voice, captions and AI

• Transcribe a sequence on your MacOpen Text › Transcript and transcribe the sequence. It runs on your Mac with word-level timing, so nothing is uploaded.
• Several languages in one videoWhen a video has more than one spoken language, each part is transcribed in its own language, and the captions go on one track per language.
• Transcribe only the changed partsWhen some clips were added, moved, trimmed or replaced since the last transcript, Transcribe Again offers to transcribe only those clips.
• Transcribe a song and clone a voice from singingWhen the sound is singing over music, the app first separates the voice from the music, then transcribes it with song settings, so whole lines are no longer skipped.
• Transcribe and caption one clipRight-click a clip and choose Transcribe and Caption This Clip. Only that clip gets new captions; the rest of the timeline is not touched.
• Make animated captions from a transcriptAfter transcribing, press Captions from Transcript and choose a caption style. Word-by-word highlight styles are built in.
• Translate captions into another languageChoose Sequence › Languages › Translate Captions…, pick the language, and the translation lands on its own caption track above the original. It can run entirely on your Mac.
• Correct captions from your scriptUse Correct from Script with your narration script. The app fixes misheard words, keeps every timing, and lists each fix for review.
• Import and export SRT and VTT captionsImport SRT or VTT files with the File menu import command. On export, burn captions in, save them as SRT or VTT, or embed them.
• The transcript follows the language you watchEach language in a sequence keeps its own transcript. Choose a language beside the timecode and the Transcript shows that language. Nothing is saved over another language.
