The Wisconsin Center for Education Research is pleased to announce the
release of Transana 2.20.
For those of you not familiar with the program, Transana is software for the
transcription and qualitative analysis of video and audio data. It runs on
Windows and Mac OS X, and is available in single-user and multi-user
(collaborative) versions. You can learn more about the software at
http://www.transana.org.
Version 2.20 offers many new features and enhancements. You can read more
about the new release at http://www.transana.org/download/whatsnew220.htm.
Highlights include:
The Mac OS X version is now complete, not an alpha test version. Audio
extraction and waveform generation finally work right on the Mac!
Transana now supports QuickTime *.MOV and *.MP4 video on both platforms and
*.WMV video and *.WMA audio on Windows, in addition to the formats supported
in earlier releases.
You can now replace the Waveform with a visualization that shows your
coding.
There is a set of new maps and graphs (designed by Nicolas Sheon) that allow
you to explore coding across time for multiple episodes, allowing (among
other things) a graphical form of longitudinal qualitative analysis.
You can export clip data for external statistical analysis.
