Media tab

Overview

The Media tab is where you manage the analysis of your media files. You can mark files for analysis, monitor the analysis progress, and control which files are included in searches.

Feature	Description
Filter by filename	Filter the table by filename.
Filter by bin	These are the bins from your project in the editing software.
Include in search column	This column controls which files Jumper will search in.
Mark for Visual analysis column	In this column you mark files for visual analysis. A green checkmark means this file has been visually analyzed.
Mark for Speech analysis column	In this column you mark files for speech analysis. A green checkmark means this file has been analyzed for speech.
Select Language of speech	In this column you can specify the language for Speech analysis. For example, if you know that the spoken language in a particular file is Portuguese, you can select it in the language dropdown for improved transcription accuracy.
Smart folders	Filter the table by rules (e.g. analyzed, not analyzed, file type). See Smart Folders and Smart folders reference.
Start analysis button	After selecting media for visual and/or speech analysis, you need to click this button to start the analysis.

How to populate the Media table

The way you populate the Media table varies depending on whether you’re running Jumper in Standalone mode or as a Plugin. Use the table below to find the method that matches your workflow:

Mode	How to Add Media
Standalone App	Click the Add media… button at the top right of the Media panel, then select the desired files or folders from your system.
Final Cut Pro	Drag-and-drop your Events or Libraries from Final Cut Pro directly into the Media panel.
Premiere Pro, Davinci Resolve	The Media table is populated automatically from your current project. If you add or remove media from your project, you can use the button to resync the Media table.
Avid Media Composer	For transcoded MXF in `Avid MediaFiles`, run Scan MXF Metadata first if the files have not been analyzed. Analyzed MXF can load without scanning. Then use the Load Media dropdown (All Selected Clips, All Visible Clips, All Bins, or All Avid Accessible Clips). Linked/AMA clips load directly without scanning. See Adding media for the full workflow.

Clearing the Media table

In the Standalone app you can clear the Media table by clicking the Clear button at the top right of the Media panel. Clearing the Media table will remove all the files from the table, but will not delete any files on your system or the analysis files from the analysis folder.

Analysis progress

When analyzing media, an analysis progress indicator is shown at the bottom of the window. It shows the current file being analyzed, that file’s progress, elapsed time, and estimated time remaining. By clicking the Cancel button in the top right corner, you will abort the analysis of this and any other media queued for analysis.

Right-click options

By right-clicking a media file, you can:

Reveal in Finder (macOS) or Reveal in File Explorer (Windows) — Open the file’s location on the filesystem
Show analysis files — Access the analysis files for that file. If you delete the analysis files, you will need to re-analyze the file
Open Script Editor (for files analyzed for speech) — Open the full transcript in the Script Editor

If you click Reveal Speech Analysis... you will find two plain text files with the actual transcriptions.

transcription-full-text.txt contains the entire transcript
transcription-segments.txt contains the entire transcript but segmented with time codes
