How to convert your video lecture to text online
The modern world offers plenty of learning possibilities, from academic university courses to online MOOCs and training sessions. The problem is that not everyone is comfortable with audio information perception. Also, some lecturers speak so fast that poor students just can’t keep up with their tempo and can’t take proper notes.
The most obvious solution is to record lectures and transcribe them to text, preferably for free. This way you will be able to read the material when you have time and energy for that, without rush and hurry.
Fortunately, supply matches demand, so you can easily find apps to record and transcribe videos, as well as specialized software and online services. The latter are of the most interest, as they don’t exhaust your device’s resources and memory, save outputs to the cloud, and can be reached from any gadget with any operating system.
Clideo is one of a kind in this set. Not only does it meet all the above-mentioned requirements, but it is also ultimately user-friendly. With the help of an all-in-one video editor, you can create complex projects, while single-function tools will help you to perform any exact task in no time.
That’s how you can transcribe a video to a text in three steps.
Upload a video lecture to the tool
Open the Video to Text tool in a browser and hit the "Choose file" button to import a recording from your device. If it is stored in cloud storage, call the drop-down menu and select the one you need. You can by the way upload the audio file of a lecture as well.
