Transcribing Audio Crashing

Sat Apr 29, 2023 7:53 pm

Is anyone else having trouble with the new Transcribing Audio function? As soon as I click the little button it says "initializing" for a second and then DR just crashes. This is when I am clicking the timeline in the media pool and trying to do it from there. I've attached a crash log if anyone can read that. Thank you!

Also I am using the free version not the studio version.

I thought Transcription only worked on Clips.

For timeline processing, we have the Subtitles feature.

No?

To Jim's point, I also thought transcription was limited to media clips. I didn't think you could select a timeline and then transcribe it. Try selecting one of your media clips. Does that work?

It appears to be quite buggy, as sometimes transcription works on full timelines, and other times it decides to crash completely

Yeah I've tried both clips and timelines and it crashes almost immediately for both.

I just tried it on a simple timeline and it worked for me. I'm surprised, actually. I'll bet if my timeline was longer that I'd start to see the instability reported by others.

I don't see a Transcribe Audio option for Timelines, only for Clips.

How are you guys doing it?

Jim, I personally haven't downloaded 18.5 yet, but here's a video that shows you how.

P.S. - In my opinion, the method looks more like a workaround than a real workflow. I hope the tool evolves into real text editing. Cut and paste parts of the text and be reflected in the timeline. Can edit the transcript elsewhere and import the new text, reflecting the changes. Transcripts with more information regarding clips, such as timestamps, people metadata, etc...

More like, Adobe´s implementation...

You need to use the timeline smart bin, Jim - the normal timeline bin doesn’t offer that option (a bug in my opinion).

So a fix I found for transcribe audio creating crashes, is to mute and delete everything apart from the audio you want transcribing, it seems to have fixed the timelines I was having issues with!

I came here after my system crashed when trying to transcribe edited timelines. It's fine with single clips though.

I tried to do what you said, and muted or removed everything except the two speakers, but it still just crashes the programme to desktop before it starts transcribing.
