Video media can be opened for playback and transcription using D:Scribe

Supported Video Media
The ability to playback AVI, MPEG and VOB/DVD video files depends upon the
version of Windows
TM
Media Player

and codecs installed on your computer.
Also, DVDs must be finalised in order to ensure playback. Non-finalised DVDs can
give spurious playback results.
MPEG4 video and audio playback (mp4, m4a) is also supported, but this does
require a third-party driver in Windows
