The Transcript Customizer is a powerful tool designed to help users modify generated transcripts to suit particular standards or enhance readability. It provides control over segment length, character count, and overall structure, making the final product more suitable for various use cases.
Transcripts often come with varying segment lengths—some segments may be overly long and packed with too many words, while others may be too short and difficult for readers to follow. The Transcript Customizer helps address these issues by allowing users to adjust segment parameters according to their needs.
How to Use the Transcript Customizer
Open Your Project:
Begin by opening your subtitle project in the Studio.
Identify Problematic Segments:
Once in the Studio, you can spot segments that are too long or too short. These segments may not be reader-friendly or may not adhere to industry guidelines.
Access the Transcript Customizer:
The Transcript Customizer is available within the Studio. Clicking on it will present you with various customization options.
Set Customization Parameters:
You’ll see input options such as:

Merge Segments Option
Enter values according to your preferred guidelines or industry standards.
Merging Segments (Optional):
You can enable the merge option to combine segments based on their duration and forward gaps. This helps create a smoother reading experience by reducing unnecessary segmentation.
If you prefer to keep segments separate, simply leave this option off.
