We transfer both your video and your timestamped certified transcript to a CD and synchronize them so that they appear together, much like a movie with subtitles. You can view the video and transcript simultaneously using YesLaw's free software package, YesVideo. Or you can use another compatible software package of your choice. What are the benefits of Transcript-Video synchronization? - You can cut and paste video clips with testimony on your computer.
- The CDs use less storage space than videotapes.
- Each CD holds roughly two hours of video with the certified transcript.
- The synchronization is inexpensive.
- Your synchronized transcript can be formatted to the litigation support package of your choice.
- You can prepare trial presentations by exporting video clips from YesVideo into popular trial presentation programs such as Sanction®, Summation and PowerPoint. You can also export your clips to an MPEG file, Windows Media file or e-mail.
What if I have my own software?
We can perform the transcript-to-video synchronization using the software package of your choice. Vendors who provide this software include Sanction®, Summation, Trial Director, VideoNote and Publisher. Top of Page Videoconferencing What is videoconferencing?
Videoconferencing lets you view on a television screen lawyers and witnesses located anywhere in the world. It is more versatile than a telephone. Not only can you ask questions and listen to answers but you can now observe at all times the deponent and exhibits in realtime on a screen with top quality visual and sound capabilities. Why use videoconferencing?
Increase your productivity and efficiency while saving time and money. Conduct your out-of-town depositions, meetings or interviews using our convenient downtown Boston facilities and avoid expensive, time-consuming traveling. How do I go about scheduling a videoconference?
Call Doris O. Wong Associates at 617-426-2432 or e-mail us at scheduling@doriswong.com . Our rooms are available 24/7/365 for your convenience. Top of Page Interactive Realtime What is interactive realtime?
With interactive realtime, your notebook receives a transcript from the court reporter's notebook while testimony is being given. You can navigate electronically through the unedited text via a series of easily learned commands that mark and save text, insert notes and issue codes, perform searches of text, and more. Once the deposition is concluded, the marked text and annotations can be saved for later use. What software do I need?
LiveNote, Summation and CaseView are three of the most popular interactive realtime software packages available. We are compatible with all of them. How do you provide interactive realtime?
We assign a highly qualified reporter who has experience with this technology to write realtime and provide you with the cable hookup and live feed that is compatible with the realtime software on your notebook. Do you provide "uncertified" rough CDs and diskettes?
Yes. An uncertified rough transcript is no replacement for the official certified transcript, but sometimes you need the convenience and speed that a "useful" uncertified transcript provides. When this is the case, we will provide the most highly skilled court reporters in the industry to make your realtime experience a positive one. Top of Page Min-U-Script Xpress - More sophisticated and useful than the traditional Min-U-Script What is Min-U-Script Xpress?
Do you need special software?
Yes. To download your FREE version, click here. Are the transcripts in Min-U-Script Xpress e-mail compatible?
Yes. Even better, you can e-mail the transcript in view only, four page compressed and an ASCII file all at the same time. Top of Page Min-U-Script .PDF What is a Min-U-Script .PDF?
Receive your Min-U-Script electronically in .pdf format. This unique program allows you to view a certified transcript and word index side by side on your computer screen. It is more versatile than the paper Min-U-Script or a digital text file such as an ASCII because the words in your index are hyperlinked to those in the transcript. You also have the capability of printing the transcript in a variety of compressed formats. Do I need to purchase additional software to use this program?
Like all .PDF files, you need Adobe reader downloaded onto your computer. If you don't have it, visit www.adobe.com Can I print my .pdf file?
Yes. You can print your certified transcript in multiple page formats with or without the word index. Is Min-U-Script .PDF e-mail compatible?
Yes. Top of Page Transcripts with Timestamping What is timestamping?
We print timestamps on your certified transcript that correspond to the clock on your videotape so you can fast forward your video to the testimony you're viewing on your transcript. This saves your videographer valuable time when cutting and pasting testimony, therefore saving you money by reducing the billable hours.
I am limited to just three hours of examination. Can I use timestamping for that?
Yes. With the use of "elapsed time" and specialized software, our reporter is able to monitor the actual number of minutes/hours of time while on the record and then print them on the certified transcript.
Is timestamping included with videotaping?
Yes. Receive the same full-page transcript that you are accustomed to receiving plus timestamping on every fifth line at no additional cost. Top of Page Scanned Exhibits What formats are available?
We can provide you with .PDF, .JPG and .TIF files. OCR is also available upon request. Do you link scanned exhibits?
Yes. We are able to link the testimony with the exhibits, upon request. Top of Page |
