How to View and Add Transcription Templates in VIDIZMO

The transcription pane in VIDIZMO allows users to export the transcript file. To set up the attributes of the media to be included in the exported file, VIDIZMO provides transcription templates and a rich WYSIWYG editor to let the users edit the transcription templates to export the transcript the way they want it. In this article, we discuss the transcription templates provided in VIDIZMO.

When a transcript is exported, it does not only include the transcribed text from the media, but also the attributes of the media such as speaker tags, translation, and other insights. With templates, you can include or exclude those attributes.

  1. Select the navigation menu on the top left of the screen.
  2. Expand Admin.
  3. Select Portal Settings.
  4. Expand Library.
