Audio and Transcription Display widget

The audio and transcription display widget visualizes and allows the playback of audio based on a media reference property on an object. It can also be used to display and interact with transcriptions using an object set containing transcription segments.

To capture audio directly within Workshop, use the Audio Recorder widget, which uploads recordings to a media reference or media set that you can then play back and visualize here.

In contrast to the Media Preview widget, the Audio and Transcription Display widget provides additional audio-specific configuration options, such as timestamp-driven behavior. The transcription component provides the following features:

• Aligned playback between the audio player and transcription view
• Speaker display for easy navigation to speakers of interest
• Action configuration options for advanced functionality, such as transcript editing

Configuration options

Audio

• Object set with a single object: An object with a media reference property.
• Audio media reference property: The media reference object property that is an audio media reference.
• Seek to timestamp (seconds): An optional numeric variable that seeks the audio to a specific timestamp.
  • If the given number is greater than the length of the audio, it will seek to the end of the audio.
  • If the given number is less than zero, it will seek to the beginning of the audio.
  • Playback will work as normal on user interaction.
