If you’d like an easy way to get a text transcript of your YouTube videos, try using YouTube’s built-in transcript tool, here’s how:
– Log in to YouTube and go to YouTube Studio.
– Select Subtitles from the sidebar (left).
– Select a video, choose the language, and click on ‘Confirm’.
– To edit the text transcript that appears on the screen, select ‘DUPLICATE AND EDIT’ (right-hand side).
– Edit the transcription in the dialog box and click on the ‘PUBLISH’ button.
– The transcript will be lowercase and lacking punctuation so this will need to edited and amended manually.
“What impresses us most is their ability to convey the issue whilst avoiding the technical jargon that those outside of IT really don’t understand.”
