Transcribing a multicam sequence for text based editing, finding the source transcription

[Udrowz]

I'm currently using text based editing for a multicam sequence, I want to label the speakers, but I get the pop-up that explains that I need to do this in the "source transciption" I'm clicking on the source files for the MCS and there isn't a transcription for them, I was able to get the transcript from the MCS, but now how do I label them, is there a hot key or place to reveal a source transcription? Sorry if this has been asked somewhere else, thanks

Hi @Udrowz @Kevin-Monahan,

Any update to this? I have a multicam sequence that the transcription worked, but I am not able to edit the speaker names. Very frustrating.

Hi @Randy Warren and @Udrowz,

Thanks for the question. Did you try contacting support directly? I'm sorry if they could not help you. What I would do is try the following:

1. Right-click the Multicamera Source Sequence in the Project panel.
2. Choose "Open in Timeline"
3. In the Timeline, right-click the clip you want to change and choose "Reveal in Project."
4. Double-click the clip in the Project panel.
5. In the Source Monitor, click the Text panel.
6. Make your change.
7. Done.

I hope the advice works for you. Let us know if it does or not. Sorry for the frustration on this.

Thanks,
Kevin
