Transcripts give attendees another way to review session content. If you already have transcript text, add it directly to the session in HeySummit. HeySummit does not create the transcript text from the video for you.
Add transcript text
Go to Content & Schedule > Sessions.
Open the session’s Actions > Manage Session.
Select Media.
Paste your text under Optional transcript.
Select Save.
Format the transcript
HeySummit preserves line breaks. Put each speaker name and timestamp on its own line, followed by the spoken text on the next line. Timestamps such as 0:01 or 12:34 make the speaker name and timestamp bold. Text after a timestamp on the same line is omitted from the displayed transcript, so keep the spoken words on separate lines.
For example, put Benjamin Dell 0:01 on one line and Welcome to the session. on the next line. Start the next speaker and timestamp on a new line.
Where attendees read it
When transcript text is present, the public session details page shows a Transcript tab to attendees who have completed registration and to event team members. The stage player can also show the transcript for the selected session.
