Frequently asked questions
How to improve the accuracy of your Chinese (Cantonese) transcripts?
Start by improving the quality of the Chinese (Cantonese) AMR 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 Chinese (Cantonese) AMR file that I upload?
Yes, please do not over-compress or over-filter the audio track of your Chinese (Cantonese) AMR file. By uploading a high quality version of your audio, we can give you the best level of accuracy.
Aside from AMR, do you support other types of audio/video files?
Yes, we do! You can convert the following file types in Chinese (Cantonese) with Sonix:
Why won't my AMR file play on my computer?
AMR is a mobile telephony codec that many desktop media players do not support out of the box. Players such as VLC can open it, or you can convert the file to MP3 or WAV for wider compatibility.
Is AMR audio good enough for transcription?
Usually yes for clear voice recordings, since the codec is designed around the human speech range. Recordings made at the lowest bit rates or with heavy background noise carry less audio detail, which can reduce transcript clarity.
Can Sonix transcribe Cantonese audio and video?
Yes. Upload your file, select Cantonese as the language, and Sonix generates a transcript you can edit in the browser and export to formats like Word, text, and subtitle files.
Does Sonix treat Cantonese and Mandarin as different languages?
Yes, they are separate language selections. Spoken Cantonese and Mandarin are not mutually intelligible, so choose Cantonese for Cantonese-language recordings.
Can I create Cantonese subtitles from my transcript?
Yes. After transcribing and editing, you can export subtitle formats such as SRT and VTT for use in video players and editing software.
