We are doing oral Bible translation, yet bringing the audio transcriptions and back-translations into Paratext for the final checks and consulting. Since the audio is the focus, we are searching for ways to include the audio timestamps in the chapter (preferably as two columns at the end of a chapter).
As changes are made to the audio, the timestamps will need to be adjusted. This can be done in a subtitle editor, then the edited timestamps could be pasted back into Paratext. We would like to find a way to have all the timestamp data stored within the chapter.
Is it possible, in the Markdown format, to paste in a two-column data table (comma-separated or (preferably) tab-separated), which can then be copied out of Paratext and pasted back into a spreadsheet in the same format?
I have looked for a category of formatting that could handle this within Paratext, but have so far been unsuccessful. The timestamps (here formatted in seconds) come out of Paratext (Unformatted View) simply separated by spaces, e.g.:
0.001000 10.106000 10.131000 43.719000 43.744000 81.418000 81.[Phone Removed]
