Integration with DOTEbase

DOTEbase is our complementary software package that is designed to support qualitative analysis of large audio-visual data sets. We built it because we wanted a software tools to help researchers to analyse larger corpora of data, either before they have been transcribed or after. It piggybacks on sets of transcripts created using DOTE that are stored on the same computer or are accessible via an external drive or remote file system.

To use DOTEbase, you will need to purchase a license for DOTE from our webshop. We strongly recommend you use DOTE v2.0+, but you can use DOTEbase even with the older version of DOTE v1.1.4.

See the help guide for how to install and use DOTEbase.

To integrate with DOTEbase, DOTE v2.0 supports:

1. Creating, viewing and deleting Transcript Clips in the Transcript Editor panel.
2. Support for importing and exporting Transcripts and Projects with Transcript Clips.
3. Support for tracking changes to Transcript Clips in Checkpoints and Autobackups.
4. Creation and editing of the same Transcript Clip in either DOTE or DOTEbase.
5. Open DOTE transcripts directly from DOTEbase.
