What is new in DOTE?

Watch video tutorial on YouTube.

To be able to use DOTEbase, you must update DOTE to at least v1.1.0+.

The main changes are as follows:

  1. Support for creating, viewing and deleting Transcript Clips in the Transcript panel.
  2. Support for importing and exporting Transcripts and Projects with Transcript Clips.
  3. Support for importing and exporting Projects with Media Clips. Note that Media Clips are not viewable in DOTE, only in DOTEbase, but the meta-data is still stored in each Project.
  4. Support for tracking changes to Clips in Checkpoints and Autobackups.

Users of the Free edition of DOTE will only be able to view Transcript Clips that others have exported and shared with them. They will not be able to edit them in any way.

NOTE that when a Transcript (in a Project) is currently open in DOTE, then that Transcript is locked in DOTEbase if it is contained in the currently open DOTEspace. This is necessary to avoid competing changes being made in both DOTE and DOTEbase to the same Transcript Clip.
