VIDEO TRANSCRIBERS
Lecture 4

Our search revealed one transcriber kit designed
specifically for transcribing video files. Judging by the file types, it
does not appear that the kit works with audio files only, though.

Given that the kit is a bit expensive at $189.00, we can't
actually play around with it in this course since we are not asking
anyone to purchase it.

We will be downloading a couple of free transcribers to
practice loading audio and video files, however, in the next lecture.
Nevertheless, we simply wanted you to be aware of this particular
transcriber and the items that come in the kit.

Interestingly, there seems to be a bit of rivalry between
Martel and StartStop, as both companies handle similar products.
Even though they sell the more pricey products, in fairness to them,
their products do have more bells and whistles than many others on
the market.

One thing they both push is their customer service and
technical support, and both compaies have a great track record of
providing both and standing behind their products. But let's take a
peek at their prices and see how they compare.
