Question

Where are the transcribed transcription files stored

Hello,

 

Where are the transcribed, transcription files stored?

 

I've opened my project on another computer from our server and sometimes on an external drive and the transcription is to be done again.

 

Does anyone know where these files are saved, so I can put them in my project folder?

 

Thanks,

 

Mick

    The transcribed text is stored in the project file. No reason for a project opened on another computer to prompt for transcribed material to be transcribed again.

     

    But there are reasons it might look like that - were the media relinked when you opened from another computer?

     

    What specific version of PR are you running? Help -> About. The latest is 23.5.

    Hi Stan,

    thanks for replying to me.

     

    Where is this text stored on the project file?

    Nothing on my projects!

     

    All media relinked with no errors and all my transcripts missing, so I had to do it again on 8 interviews.

     

     

     

    I've rolled it back to 23.2 version for stability reasons which have not been addressed yet:

    I am not suggesting that you try to do anything with this. You can't. It is simply a way to check whether the transcript content is in the project file. I can't see any way that PR would remove a transcript if you are just saving and reopening a project.

     

    Unzip the .prproj file. Open in text editor. Search for ExternallyProvidedTranscriptDocument

     

    The content of the transcript is hex code that looks like this....
