Tips for Best Video Transcription Results
Get the best results from your transcription with these helpful tips.
Optimize Audio Quality
For best results, use videos with clear audio. Recordings made with external microphones or in quiet environments will produce more accurate transcripts than those with heavy background noise.
File Format Tips
While we support all formats, MP4 with AAC audio codec typically processes fastest. If you experience issues, try re-encoding your video with standard codecs.
Speaker Separation
For interviews or meetings, ensure speakers don't talk over each other for best speaker detection accuracy. Clear turn-taking produces the most accurate speaker labels.
Length Considerations
For very long videos (2+ hours), consider splitting into segments for faster processing. Each segment can be transcribed separately and combined afterward.
