Automatic Transcription for Videos Using Google Voice Typing

Learned a trick for transcribing videos. Open up a Google Document in Chrome. Open up the video. Make sure the audio is being piped to Chrome. I use the Loopback app from Rogue Amoeba (Mac). Start the video. Click on Tools > Voice Typing. Voila. It’s automated, so there are transcription errors. But it usually gets me 60-80% of the way there. I’ve seen folks use Soundflower on PCs to do the same trick as Loopback.
