On a debate’s page, every transcribed passage carries its timecode: one click on it positions the video on that passage.

On a three-hour hearing, you go straight to the passage you need.

In detail

On the page for a debate, the transcription is split into interventions. Each block shows its speaker when identified, its timecode and a play button. One click, and the video moves to that passage. You no longer have to scroll through a recording to find the forty seconds you care about.

The method that works

  1. Search the text first. Use the search box on the Transcription tab to find your phrase.
  2. Then listen to the passage. Click the timecode on the highlighted block.
  3. Then quote from the official report. If the remark is going into a deliverable, check the wording against the official report published by the institution.

Adjusting by a few seconds

The alignment between text and video is computed automatically. If the video starts a few seconds away from the passage, step back slightly in the player and you land on it.
