What kind of media formats can be transcribed?
Any audio or video recording can be transcribed. The simplest media formats to work with include MP3, WAV, and WMA. These require little or no handling to be transcribed. Physical media such as VHS tapes, DVDs, CDs, or audio cassettes usually require conversion to a digital format. Other formats, such as AVI and QuickTime, can be transcribed, too, but require a conversion to MP3, WMA, or WAV.
