A 'transcript' in NVivo is text related to an audio or video file. It can include:
A transcription of the words spoken in the file
Descriptions of what is occurring at different times in the file
Notes or observations relevant to particular times in the file
Notes about the media content in general, not specific to any time range
You can import audio and video files into NVivo and code and annotate time ranges or transcribed text. YouTube videos are also handled.
