Timecoded transcript renditions

In addition to the traditional NITF-formatted script renditions for video, Media API now returns timecoded video transcript renditions in the JSON and NITF formats when available. A timecoded transcript provides the text of all the dialog in the video tagged with the time references. Make sure to review the editor's note in the transcript file for important information about the AI-generated transcriptions.
