What to consider when choosing video transcription software

With reliable video transcription software, you can transcribe video to text accurately without spending hours writing out everything yourself and without paying a lot of money for a transcriber. Choose software with accurate speaker recognition and go for software that records high-quality audio. The clearer your audio is, the better audio recognition software can recognize words correctly. Transcription software is meant to be fast and efficient to save you time. Opt for software that gives you video transcripts instantly after recording.

This shouldn’t compromise accuracy, though. Besides speed and accuracy, choose software that offers suitable transcription formats for your needs. Want to repurpose your video into blogs, articles, or social media posts? Go for text (TXT) transcripts. Want to add captions and subtitles to a video? Go for timestamped SubRip (SRT) files. Both of these are great for increasing your video’s searchability. Other features to look out for include ease of use and the ability to transcribe with various speakers in one video.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a video transcription?

Video transcription is the process of converting the audio from a video into text. This text can help people who cannot hear or those who struggle to understand because the language of the video is not in their native language. You can use transcriptions as captions or subtitles, but creators also use them to repurpose their content further.

How can I get a transcript of a video?

If you’re looking for the video transcript of content on YouTube, you can simply receive it from the three dots next to the ‘Save’ button of the video. Otherwise, you can transcribe manually or use video transcript software to save time. For example, Riverside is an accurate and fast video transcriber that gives you transcripts straight after recording.

How do I transcribe audio from a video?

While you can transcribe audio from a video manually, this is either time-consuming or rather expensive if you’re hiring someone. An alternative is to use a video transcript generator, although these are not always extremely reliable and depend on high-quality audio for accuracy. Riverside.fm, on the other hand, is fast, reliable, and records in high-definition to keep your transcripts accurate. Check out how to transcribe video to text in minutes using our video transcription software.

How much does it cost to have a video transcribed?

You can get video transcription free, but this isn’t usually the best option. You can hire someone to transcribe manually for better and more reliable results, but this is expensive and can cost a few dollars per minute of recording. Instead, save time and money. Check out Riverside.fm’s pricing for a good-quality video transcript generator. We also have a guide on video transcription to help you find the best affordable option for your needs.
