What is a TRANSCRIPT file?

TRANSCRIPT files mostly belong to Apple Voice Memos. TRANSCRIPT files are transcription files that store voice memo transcripts using Apple's binary property list format (plist).
These files capture structured data including transcribed text, time codes, and segmentation details. They are generated by Apple's voice applications such as Apple Voice Memos.

File Format: The content is serialized in a binary plist format, which is not directly human-readable.

Primary Use: They hold transcription data from recorded audio.

Viewing: To read or edit these files, a property list editor or viewer is needed.

Programs that open and convert TRANSCRIPT files:

Apple Voice Memos
See the previous paragraphs to learn more about the main application. TRANSCRIPT files are often referred to as Apple Voice Memos data files because this type of file is primarily created or used by this software.
Transcription Software, Audio/Video Editing Software
Files with the *.TRANSCRIPT extension are primarily associated with transcriptions of audio or video recordings. They contain the textual representation of spoken content, often generated by automatic speech recognition (ASR) software or created manually by human transcribers. These files can store transcriptions verbatim or with varying levels of editing and formatting. The specific internal format of a *.TRANSCRIPT file can vary depending on the software used to create it. Some common formats include plain text, rich text format (RTF), and specialized formats used by transcription software or platforms. The content within a *.TRANSCRIPT file typically includes the transcribed speech, timestamps, speaker identification, and potentially other metadata related to the recording. This file format is classified as Transcription File.

TRANSCRIPT file format:

Each file has a definite file format, that is, how the stored data is arranged in the file. The file format can be determined based on the file extension and the signature (the first few characters of a file). If the file extension does not match the file format, double-clicking on the file will cause an error upon opening. So you need a detailed analysis of a file to find out the format and the associated program. Our evaluation of the TRANSCRIPT files is as follows:

The TRANSCRIPT file extension is not common and is used by different programs with different formats. However, the following two file formats are common:

50% of all TRANSCRIPT files are based on the well-known plist file format. A property list file is a structured text file that contains user's settings or macOS apps configuration. They consist of unreadable binary data. TRANSCRIPT files can be up to 37 KB in size, but are often around 1 KB - 19 KB. The file type is relatively new. Certain words are almost always found in the files, such as bplist00, NSKeyedArchiver, Troot and X$versionY$archiverT$topX$objects.
30% of all TRANSCRIPT files save the data in JSON file format. JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data−interchange format. It is easy for humans to read and write. It is easy for machines to parse and generate. The content consists of readable text data, which can be read using a text editor. TRANSCRIPT files are between 1 KB and 860 KB in size. Certain words are almost always found in the files, such as language, text, JsonResult, properties, DisplayText, LexicalText and NBest. An example of a file name is Capture 2020-06-01.transcript or - 2020-06-01.transcript. Such TRANSCRIPT files store data about aufzeichnen.

The remaining 20% of all TRANSCRIPT files are files with no common format. These files sometimes refer to voicemail. If you want to find out which format your TRANSCRIPT file belongs to, just click on the button "Choose your .transcript file to analyze".
