Preface that I am new to NVivo, but eager to learn for a qualitative content analysis ---
When I use NCapture to collect a pdf of a Twitter post, it often does not include all the images. Additionally it collects two "references" (as data points) for that one Twitter post, which doubles the frequency counted under the coded node. NCapture works fine for Facebook and Instagram posts as PDFs, with some odd formatting. But for all three platforms the "coverage", which as I understand it refers to the % of the text that is recognized by NVivo, is not always 100%. So it seems also that NVivo isn't "reading" all the text in each post which will skew word frequency count and queries.
Has anyone else experienced these issues? I'm still learning the software, but this seemed a specific issue. Thanks in advance!
Hi,
The NCapture extension may miss Twitter images due to its limitations and Twitter's content loading style. Duplicate references could result from NCapture and NVivo treating retweets, quote tweets, or metadata as separate entries. Less than 100% NVivo coverage might be due to challenges in interpreting complex PDF elements or low-quality text.
Hope this helps.
