Searching for Transcript and Summary Data

After you have transcribed an asset, you can use either the Any or the Markers & Segments (simple or advanced) pill types in the Search app to search for the Speaker or Transcript text. Searches return master clips and subclips that include the matching transcribe text.

If you are using the Timeline view of the Search app's Inline Hits window, the transcript is displayed as one segment per sentence, and not as a 1:1 representation of the Transcript segments. Each segment includes information about the transcripted audio, speaker, language, and track. For more information, see In-Line Hits: Timeline View.

After an associated summary has been created for a transcript, you can use the Search app to search for text within the summary. Searches return master clips and subclips that include the matching summary text. If you are using the Search app's Inline Hits window, the summary is shown in the Inline Hits Metadata view. For more information, see In-Line Hits: Metadata View.

For more information on Search, see Using the Search App.
