-
multiple tiers
Enable multiple transcription tiers relating to the same time code so that a transcription tier can be linked to a translation or annotation tier. This would make the software very attractive to those doing documentary linguistics.
2 votesThanks for the suggestion. The idea of a tiered or tabbed interface is very much on our radar. It would be a great way to organize notes, transcriptions, and translations. We will definitely consider it for a future version of InqScribe.

Add jog & shuttle support for video manipulation
So that I can use a jog wheel to fast forward and rewind in the same way I am able to do with Quicktime.

add quick look functionality to inqscribe files
I'd like to be able to use the Quick Look feature of osx to see at least the text contents of inqscribe files at a glance in the finder.

Batch update for file locations
Different users have the same file stored in different locations. Currently, we have to relocate each file one by one as we re-open transcripts. It would be so much easier to have a batch update function, or a default directory option that can be updated and affect all transcripts.

Allow us to disable built-in shortcuts
Specifically, I'd love it if Control-W shortcut to close the program had some way to back out of it. Because of other triggers I've set and am very accustomed to, it is way too easy to trigger this shortcut and tab to the "Don't Save" button and hit enter, which I did this morning, losing some unsaved work.
I'd just rather never have this particular function on shortcut.
If disabling is not an option, how about allowing the shortcut to remain in the system, but remap the trigger to a combination less likely to be inadvertently hit?

"match settings" of video
add option for a new inqsribe doc to "match settings" of video that is inserted for transcribing (vs manually changing everything / kinda like dragging something into a new fcp sequence)

Stopwatch Snippet Variable
This idea comes from our user Ross:
"A snippet which would add a time stamp in seconds with a running clock restarted from 0 seconds from the previous marker. The first marker would start the clock running and the second entry would add the elapsed time, say 10.35 (seconds). The third entry would reset the clock to zero then add the elapsed time between the second and third entry, say 120.50 (seconds)."

add the ability to export transparency/ opacity scale.
add the ability to export onto a translucent background. Maybe have the transparent with a transparency/ opacity scale.
1 voteHi Junie,
Thanks for your suggestion. InqScribe currently offers a “Transparent” background option for subtitle display (see the Save Subtitled QuickTime Movie Menu settings: http://docs.inqscribe.com/2.2/subtitling.html#export). However, we do not currently offer a translucent/opaque background option, so we will place your suggestion under consideration for a future update of InqScribe.
Thanks again!

Make transcript change color every x seconds from previous timecode
Sometimes transcribers are requested to enter timecodes every, say, 20 seconds. InqScribe doesn't automatically insert timecodes in order to avoid situations where the timecodes gets inserted in a bad spot, like t[00:00:20.00]his.
A workaround is to have the transcript, or a part of the transcript change color to indicate the 20 second mark. Ideally, the would be a color animation (for example, gradually turning from green to yellow to red) so that you could plan your line break.

Add Google Cloud Speech-to-Text API connection
Please add an interface that helps the users to send audio files to their accounts in Google Cloud to have them translated automatically and then corrected with InqScribe.
Create an instruction page to help your customers register with the Google Cloud Speech-to-Text API service.
I've been trying to use this service myself but am finding the instruction on Google too complicated. Too oriented to experienced software developers, which I'm not.

add blinking cursor
It's hard to tell where you placed the cursor when editing text because there's no blinking cursor/indicator like in Word.

Support on a secure (https) web site
Why isn't the support site (on Uservoice) of InqScribe a secure site (https)?
