LinguSocial's Import transcript feature allows you to import an existing transcript with its corresponding audio or video and turn it into a full-fledged LinguSocial document without using any of your transcription time. Before using this feature, please be aware that you can only import a certain amount of transcripts into LinguSocial, depending on what plan you are on.
How to import an existing transcript
- Open the App
- Go to transcripts
- Click on the Create Transcript button
- Inside of the dialog select Import Transcript
- In the file selection dialog, select the SRT or VTT from your device
- Finally, press Create
Info: Make sure to include the speaker labels when you export the SRT / VTT file, otherwise we won't be able to import them. Here some examples of how the file format should look like:
VTT
