How to use:
Load media in the player ("File" - "Open media file..."), use the media-controls to adjust speed and volume, set keyboard shortcuts for media control in the "Preferences" pane and type away.
Transcriptions also supports text-substitutions by inserting "@" followed by a text-token. Insert timestamps into the text to jump to a particular position in the loaded media file.
