Today I was looking for a tool to ease my transcription of a recording
of a half-hour appointment with a doctor.

Googling led to https://transcribe.wreally.com/ for the job - it really
works well, and it seems like something orgmode should be able to do.

The idea is to unite a media player with a text-editing window.  Certain
commands issued *while in the text window* will operate on the media
player: pause, go back or ahead 2 seconds, slow down, speed up, etc.
Uniting the two eliminates constant switching between a media player and
a text editor - it's all integrated and controllable without switching
windows.

Could orgmode do something like that?

I don't see why not. Emacs could, or perhaps your audio program or
window manager. I use xbindkeys and a few commands to control mpd
(music daemon) and skip tracks, change volume, etc. Emacs has
frontends to the same.

Hello,

You should have a look at EMMS. It's suite easy to setup on linux. But if
you are using a MS Windows OS, it does requiert more settings. But
everything you light ne controlable within Emacs.

Regards,

Basile

FWIW, here's my config (and two helper functions to make seeking a bit
easier):

This is great - many thanks!  I'm using it now, taking a break during
crosstalk in a recorded meeting.  I, too, had problems with skipping
backwards - your solution worked for me.  And the scale of the skipping
is off for me, too - a setting of -10 will skip back about 2 or 3
seconds.

I'm doing this on osx with homebrew's build of head-branch emacs and the
homebrew mplayer, and it works amazingly well.

Cheers -
