In Transcript: Export to text file - must include Timecode info!

In Transcript: Export to text file.. To make this useful it needs to take clip name (all takes on timeline) and timecode info across so my (old school) documentary director can make a paper edit from interviews etc. Then provide me with time codes to build the assembly. (often barked down the phone!)

If I was self-directing and doing a project entirely within Premier. fine, I wouldn't need to export anything.
But filmmaking is a collaboration and the director doesn't want to touch the edit program but happy to look at text in Word or similar.

If the exported text file looked the same as what I see in the Transcript window that would be perfect. With Speaker (Custom)name/number, line number (from captions window - v.useful ), AND TIMECODE !!

Thanks,
Mark

My first test and the AI worked amazingly on a boomed IV clip to get nearly all text correct! Exciting times!

It's really a shame that they didn't consult documentary editors when devising this feature. Transcript is useless without timecode. Please we need this ASAP!!!!!!!!

Yes I agree. I need a transcript with TC and speakers just like we see in Premiere to export to word so I can send to collaborators.

Yes please!!!!! As the OP states, this is ESSENTIAL, and most especially for the kind of work we do in documentary production as well as corporate work.

It appears that this Premiere plug-in is powered by Trint who are clearly withholding this feature as it is available direct from them,
behind a subscription wall. As we already have to pay for our apps many times over through Adobe subscriptions, it would be nice to have access to this pro feature. Rather than what is essentially in app advertising

Adobe...?

I suspect that this will be a service that they will eventually offer for a price?
