Understanding Hindi VOB files
Standard Hindi is based on the Khari Boli dialect of the Delhi region, but everyday speech across northern India shades into related varieties such as Awadhi, Braj, and Bhojpuri. Spoken Hindi also overlaps heavily with Urdu, and urban speakers frequently mix in English ("Hinglish"), so recordings often contain more than one register.

Frequently asked questions
How to improve the accuracy of your Hindi transcripts?
Start by improving the quality of the Hindi VOB 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 Hindi VOB file that I upload?
Yes, please do not over-compress or over-filter the audio track of your Hindi VOB file. By uploading a high quality version of your audio, we can give you the best level of accuracy.
Aside from VOB, do you support other types of audio/video files?
Yes, we do! You can convert the following file types in Hindi with Sonix:
Why is my DVD split into several VOB files?
The DVD-Video specification limits each VOB segment to 1 GB, so longer titles are stored as sequential files (VTS_01_1.VOB, VTS_01_2.VOB, and so on) inside the VIDEO_TS folder. You can transcribe each segment separately or join them into a single file first for one continuous transcript.
My VOB has multiple audio tracks — which one gets transcribed?
VOB files can multiplex several audio streams, such as different languages or a commentary track. Transcription uses one audio stream at a time, so if you need a track other than the default, extract or remux that stream before uploading.
Can Sonix transcribe Hindi audio that mixes in English words?
Yes, you can upload Hindi audio and video files and Sonix will transcribe them; because Hindi speakers often switch into English mid-sentence, it is worth reviewing mixed-language passages in the built-in editor before exporting.
Does Sonix output Hindi transcripts in Devanagari script?
Yes, Hindi transcripts are produced in Devanagari, and you can edit them in the browser and export to formats like DOCX, PDF, SRT, and VTT.
Should I choose Hindi or Urdu for my recording?
Spoken Hindi and Urdu overlap heavily, but they are separate language selections with different scripts, so choose the one that matches your recording to get the transcript in the correct writing system.
