Dicta a video page click DictaBooth ready to type

Open any video, click Dicta in your bookmarks bar, and DictaBooth opens in a new tab with the session ready. It fetches the transcript itself; the video need not even have captions showing.

If it says the panel would not open: open it yourself first, under the video, … then Show transcript, and click the button again. Several subtitle languages? Set the panel to the one being spoken before you click. Whatever it shows is what gets sent. Nothing is copied and nothing is stored. The transcript travels in the part of the address after #, which browsers strip before any request leaves your machine. Desktop browsers only. ← Back to DictaBooth
