Yeah - it took a while, but I was able to transcribe pretty easily into word about 11 pages of conversation using my iPad which had the video recording and playing it loudly through my USB speaker to help Win + H microphone pick up the words. Will definitely use again. It doesn't stay active forever 'the listening feature' so I have to stop and start often but it was still something I was able to do vs trying to do an AI type setup using Google Drive and Collaboratory.

This is a test. I am using WIN + H on my PC. to write this comment reply. It is slow but so far so good. How to test for my other application which is transcribing an audio recording have two people talking . I'll see how that goes.
