I haven't used ScriptSync but a similar program. I used it on a short doc where the people talking were in either noisy room, or spoke with an accent , and/or with a lot of "hums..." and "ahhs..." The client asked for a transcript and (since a transcript was not in the budget) I used a voice recognition program. I was impressed with what it did get right, but most of the transcript ranged from hilarious to unreadable. The humms and ahhs were translated to the nearest possible word. And of course, no punctuation.
Was I just using a really inferior product, or is ScriptSync susceptible to the same problems? Things would have been much different if I had shot a scripted scene.
