footswitch2


DESCRIPTION

Footswitch 2 is a media player for transcribers on Linux. Written in python and using the python bindings for VLC it allows a transcriber to control the audio or video with a USB footpedal, and includes a set of macros that integrate into LibreOffice. This allows the transcriber to control the media player from within Libreoffice as well, making it useful for those who do not yet own a footpedal/footswitch.
Control of the media player from LibreOffice can be via Hotkeys or an integrated toolbar.
There are multiple timestamp macros, along with media player control macros for
Play/Pause toggle
Jump backwards
Jump forwards
Slower
Faster
Normal Audio speed
Jump to timestamp

Allows for multiple transcription clients, database export for spreadsheet invoicing.

This combination of fs2 and libreoffice unlike some other transcription tools, means you are working in a world class editor, with the ability to save documents in multiple formats, including Microsoft Word formats.
