Understanding Bengali XSPF files
Standard Bengali comes in two closely related national varieties: the Dhaka-influenced standard used in Bangladesh and the Kolkata-based standard used in West Bengal, India, which differ in pronunciation and some vocabulary. Regional varieties such as Sylheti and Chittagonian diverge so strongly that many linguists classify them as separate languages, so they behave differently from standard Bengali in speech recognition.

Frequently asked questions
How to improve the accuracy of your Bengali transcripts?
Start by improving the quality of the Bengali XSPF 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 Bengali XSPF file that I upload?
Yes, please do not over-compress or over-filter the audio track of your Bengali XSPF file. By uploading a high quality version of your audio, we can give you the best level of accuracy.
Aside from XSPF, do you support other types of audio/video files?
Yes, we do! You can convert the following file types in Bengali with Sonix:
Can I convert an XSPF file to text?
Not directly, because an XSPF file is a playlist that contains no audio data, only references to audio files. Locate the MP3, WAV, or OGG files it points to, upload those to Sonix to transcribe them, then edit and export the transcript.
How do I find the audio files referenced in an XSPF playlist?
Open the XSPF file in a text editor or a player like VLC; each track's location tag lists the file path or URL of the actual audio file. Those referenced files are what you upload for transcription.
What is the difference between XSPF and M3U playlists?
Both are playlist formats that reference external audio files rather than storing audio themselves. XSPF organizes its entries with structured XML tags, while M3U is a simpler plain-text list of file paths.
Can Sonix transcribe both Bangladeshi and Indian Bengali?
Yes. Sonix's Bengali model handles standard Bengali as spoken in both Bangladesh and West Bengal, India; you upload your audio or video, select Bengali, and then review and edit the transcript in the browser.
Does Sonix output Bengali transcripts in the Bengali script?
Yes. Transcripts are produced in the native Bengali (Bangla) script, and you can edit them in the online editor and export to formats such as DOCX, PDF, SRT, and VTT.
Can Sonix transcribe Sylheti or Chittagonian recordings?
Sonix's Bengali model is trained on standard Bengali, and Sylheti and Chittagonian diverge enough that they are often considered separate languages. Recordings in those varieties may need more manual correction in the editor.
Trusted by professionals worldwide
The accuracy of the initial transcription was better than any I've used to date, and making adjustments was very simple.
I have a 30-40 minute commute to work and like to dictate memos and other brief documents along the way–but I haven't had an easy way to get them transcribed...until now. Thanks Sonix!
