Understanding Arabic AVI files
Arabic is diglossic: Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) dominates news broadcasts, speeches, and formal settings, while everyday conversation happens in regional dialects such as Egyptian, Levantine, Gulf, Iraqi, and Maghrebi. Spoken dialects can differ substantially from MSA and from each other, which affects how recognizable conversational audio is to speech recognition.

Frequently asked questions
How to improve the accuracy of your Arabic transcripts?
Start by improving the quality of the Arabic AVI file that you upload to Sonix. Please use high quality recording equipment, recording in a quiet environment, and ensure that your speakers are speaking clearly to ensure that your transcript is as accurate as possible.
Any advice for the Arabic AVI file that I upload?
Yes, please do not over-compress or over-filter the audio track of your Arabic AVI file. By uploading a high quality version of your audio, we can give you the best level of accuracy.
Aside from AVI, do you support other types of audio/video files?
Yes, we do! You can convert the following file types in Arabic with Sonix:
Do I need to convert my AVI file to MP4 before transcribing it?
No. AVI files can be uploaded directly; the audio track is extracted and transcribed regardless of which video codec the file uses.
Why is my AVI file so large?
AVI files often use little or no compression, and fully uncompressed AVI can occupy multiple gigabytes per minute of video. Re-encoding to a modern container like MP4 reduces the file size considerably if you need to move or store the footage.
Can Sonix transcribe Egyptian Arabic and other dialects?
Sonix transcribes Arabic audio, and speech close to Modern Standard Arabic generally produces the cleanest results. Dialect-heavy recordings such as Egyptian or Maghrebi conversation can be transcribed and then polished in the browser-based editor, where the text is synced to the audio.
Does Sonix handle right-to-left Arabic text?
Yes, transcripts are displayed in Arabic script and can be edited directly in the browser. Finished transcripts export to standard formats such as Word documents and SRT or VTT subtitle files.
How do I transcribe an Arabic audio or video file with Sonix?
Upload your file (up to 4 GB or 4 hours) from your computer, Dropbox, or Google Drive, select Arabic as the spoken language, and Sonix returns a transcript you can edit and export.
