Understanding Dutch MOV files
Netherlands Dutch and Belgian Dutch (Flemish) share one written standard but sound noticeably different — Flemish is spoken with a softer "g" and uses more French-influenced vocabulary. Surinamese Dutch and regional accents like Brabantian add further pronunciation differences, though all are handled as accents of the same Dutch language. Limburgish, by contrast, is officially recognized as a distinct regional language in the Netherlands, so treat it separately from accented standard Dutch.

Frequently asked questions
How to improve the accuracy of your Dutch transcripts?
Start by improving the quality of the Dutch MOV 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 Dutch MOV file that I upload?
Yes, please do not over-compress or over-filter the audio track of your Dutch MOV file. By uploading a high quality version of your audio, we can give you the best level of accuracy.
Aside from MOV, do you support other types of audio/video files?
Yes, we do! You can convert the following file types in Dutch with Sonix:
Do I need to convert MOV to MP4 before transcribing?
No. MOV files can be uploaded and transcribed directly, and because both containers typically carry the same audio codecs, converting first adds a step without changing the result.
Why won't my MOV file play on Windows?
Some MOV files use Apple codecs such as ProRes that Windows media players do not decode by default. Playing the file in a codec-rich player like VLC, or converting it to MP4, usually resolves the issue.
Can Sonix transcribe Flemish (Belgian Dutch)?
Yes. Flemish shares the same written standard as Netherlands Dutch, so Belgian Dutch audio is transcribed with the Dutch language model, and you can adjust regional vocabulary in the transcript editor before exporting.
Is Afrikaans the same as Dutch for transcription?
No. Afrikaans evolved from Dutch but is a distinct language, so choose the language setting that matches your audio rather than treating the two as interchangeable.
Does Dutch transcription handle English words mixed into speech?
Dutch speakers often mix English terms into business and tech conversations, and those loanwords may need light cleanup, which you can do in the built-in editor after the automated transcript is ready.
