Writes what is said in a video — the words a person speaks on camera, or a voiceover heard over the picture. Fits the writing to the time available, so lines are never rushed to fit or padded to fill. A video longer than a single clip gets its script split into one piece per clip, each sized to that clip's seconds. Outputs the words as text only — nothing is recorded or voiced here. Use when the user wants a script, dialogue, or a voiceover written for a video.
