Students only for media they own.
There may be some times when you need to delete all of the transcriptions applied to a piece of media. It could be that the transcription is so inaccurate as to be difficult to use, or some user has created/edited the transcript in a way that is inappropriate. In these instances, you can delete the transcript from the media.
You may decide to then re-publish the media to have it auto-transcribed through ASR, or ask the administrator to request ASR transcripts for this media. Alternatively, if the closed captions on the media are usable, you can download the captions.vtt file for the media (from the Details tab of the Media Details page), then upload it as a transcription.
IMPORTANT: Selecting to delete transcripts deletes ALL VERSIONS of the transcripts applied to the media. If you want to retain one or any of those versions, download the transcript VTT file(s) first, then delete the transcripts.

- In the bottom section, click the Details tab as shown below.
