Inqscribe
Designed for researchers, transcriptionists, and film and video professionals who work with extensive audio and video data, InqScribe features a flexible editing environment, QuickTime and Windows Media support, foot pedal support, customizable keyboard shortcuts for controlling media playback and inserting repetitive text, and a range of import and export options.
InqScribe transcripts contain embedded timecodes that allow instant access to arbitrary times within the media file. Extensive subtitling support make it easy to generate captioned media from transcript files. Unregistered versions of InqScribe have limited functionality; users may request free, time-limited evaluation licenses to explore the full capabilities of the application.
Final Cut Pro support:
You can now export subtitles from InqScribe directly to Final Cut Pro XML files. InqScribe will export the subtitles using a template of your own design, making it much easier to add captions and subtitles directly to your FCP project.
- InqScribe can now insert time code series, e.g. "lay down a time code every 30 seconds" (9777).
- InqScribe can now export a time code series, or all time codes in a transcript, as a set of JPEG files (5273, QuickTime only).
- Added provisional support for exporting FCP markers. It works, but we need feedback to improve the utility of the exported file.
- Support for importing and exporting SCC files (9571).
- Time code fields in various dialogs now auto-format and have key shortcuts (see the tooltip) that let you quickly increment/decrement specific fields (4008).
- Changed what InqScribe does when it finds auto-backup files on launch. Instead of directly opening the backups, InqScribe now opens a window listing all found backups. The user may then choose to recover files individually, or delete the files (6154).
- App bundle identifier set (10167).
- Word count is now much faster and more responsive (11246).
- Contextual menus in dialog text fields now reflect the current selection better (11293).
- Edit > Clear menu item renamed “Delete” on OS X, which better matches current expectations (11294).
- Developmental builds now identified as such (11350).
- Floating windows now hidden when About InqScribe menu item is selected (11090).
- OS X help docs moved inside the app bundle (11355).
- Exporting contiguous subtitles to FCP no longer results in a 1-frame gap.
- FCP exports will subtract the media start time from all time codes, which solves the issue of all your subtitles showing up an hour too late in the FCP timeline. Make sure you've set the start time appropriately!
- InqScribe can handle alternative datetime format delimiters within a WAV BWF chunk.
- InqScribe no longer fails silently if you try to save to a read-only location (14017).
- Exported FCP XML now imports properly into Final Cut Pro 7 (14553).
- InqScribe no longer shows the "Missing Media" dialog when it can't find a media file. Instead, it just notes the error in the video space. Use Media > Reload menu item to try again, or Media > Select Media File... to choose an alternative file (11281).
- Fixed rare nil object exception in button drawing (12257).
- Minor menu cleanup (13519).
- Fixed OS X bug where all floating windows were shown after the layer was hidden (9867).
- Windows no longer snap when moved, which solves a common race condition crash on Windows (9726).
- Clicking an empty row in the Go to Time dialog no longer generates an out of bounds exception (10589).
- Using skipback with paused media no longer accidentally sets the play rate to 0 (10959).
- Fixed bug where it was possible, on Windows, to generate out of bounds errors while editing shortcuts (11029).
- Conversions from NTSC DF to frame number no longer tries to add drop frames (12843).
