As a TV/film pro I am curious about how you would use the transcript linked to video function.
- Screening and making notes to be edited in another video editing program?
- Reporting/writing about the video and the content but never directly using the source video again.
- Quoting the video in other mediums but maintaining the original copy for legal and reference purposes?
I could see a function of DT where, using a time-stamped linked transcript and associted video file, one could export an AAF or simple EDL of selected clips from a video and those could be imported into any edit platform.
EDL can be a simple text file. Everything else runs into some sore of licensing or IP issue.
