Understanding Estonian XSPF files
Standard Estonian is based on the northern dialect group, which dominates broadcast media and everyday speech. South Estonian varieties such as Võro, Seto, Mulgi, and Tartu diverge substantially — Võro and Seto are sometimes classified as separate languages — so recordings from southeastern Estonia can differ noticeably from the standard.

Frequently asked questions
How to improve the accuracy of your Estonian transcripts?
Start by improving the quality of the Estonian 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 Estonian XSPF file that I upload?
Yes, please do not over-compress or over-filter the audio track of your Estonian 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 Estonian 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 Estonian audio and video files?
Yes. Upload an Estonian audio or video file, select Estonian as the language, and Sonix generates a transcript you can edit, search, and export.
Does Estonian transcription handle South Estonian dialects like Võro?
Sonix's Estonian transcription targets standard Estonian, which is based on the northern dialects. Strongly divergent South Estonian varieties such as Võro or Seto may need additional review in the editor.
Can I export Estonian transcripts as subtitles?
Yes. Estonian transcripts can be exported as SRT and VTT subtitle files, as well as document formats like DOCX and PDF.
Trusted by professionals worldwide
Very high accuracy transcription with noisy tapes / accents. The ability to edit as you listen is incredible. I haven't been impressed with code to this extent since the release of google maps.
English dictation is very accurate. And the online editor is easy to use. Also it generates SRT files that I can import in my video editors for further processing.
