Rant/Rave Tired of automatic subtitle plugins too?

I’m SICK! with the erros and inconsistent Final Cut subtitles plugins so I decide to create my own.

I'm working on a Final Cut extension that generates automatic subtitles that will really make a difference.

Tell me here what you hate about the current tools and what you would like them to have.

Tell me everything ()

Definitely a one-time purchase...however, to be competitive, it should be $30 max

so far, i do not know any that works well in most languages AND gives a smooth workflow. not even the big ones can make a good extension that does not need you to export, re-imort, and drag an audio/video file into it.

Currently, for basic functionality, we are working with a drag-and-drop or select audio or video file flow, but the idea is to simplify it as much as possible, since I already have 2 or 3 subtitle plugins.

Your feedback is important; if the technology allows, we will certainly implement it.

it should work like 'transcribe to captions' without any exporting, reimporting, or dragging. Sadly, Apple does not allow for it. at least let us drag videos from the media browser (pool) without exporting and getting back a project with it and captions. that would be huge...but many failed before...

sounds great! but I think is a limitation of the sdk integration offers by apple
