Subject: orgmode as a transcription tool?
Date: Mon, 02 Feb 2015 23:23:25 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <ruomw4vefg2.fsf@wolfram.com> (raw)

Today I was looking for a tool to ease my transcription of a recording
of a half-hour appointment with a doctor.

Googling led to https://transcribe.wreally.com/ for the job - it really
works well, and it seems like something orgmode should be able to do.

The idea is to unite a media player with a text-editing window.  Certain
commands issued *while in the text window* will operate on the media
player: pause, go back or ahead 2 seconds, slow down, speed up, etc.
Uniting the two eliminates constant switching between a media player and
a text editor - it's all integrated and controllable without switching
windows.

From https://transcribe.wreally.com/guide/how-to-transcribe-audio-interviews-faster/

Could orgmode do something like that?

Cheers -
