Transcribe a recording inside ScriptCut

o get a word-level transcript out of DaVinci Resolve, open the **Audio Transcription** panel, click the three-dot menu, and choose **Export Subtitles**. Now the settings that matter: set **Maximum** to **1 character per line**, set **Lines** to **Single**, and check **Include Speaker Name**. That one-character-per-line setting is the whole trick. It gives every word its own timecode, which is what lets ScriptCut cut to the exact frame. Save the file, then drop it into ScriptCut's transcript step." As of 2026, the transcription engine in Davinci Resolve isn’t perfect. Should you be unhappy with the results or experience timing issues, try to Transcribe within ScriptCut for more accurate results.
