Understanding Latvian QT files
Latvian has three traditional dialect groups: the Middle dialect, which forms the basis of standard Latvian, plus the Livonian and Upper Latvian (High Latvian) dialects. Latgalian, spoken in eastern Latvia, diverges enough in pronunciation and vocabulary that it is often treated as a distinct written variety, so speech recognition works best with standard Latvian speech.

Frequently asked questions
How to improve the accuracy of your Latvian transcripts?
Start by improving the quality of the Latvian QT 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 Latvian QT file that I upload?
Yes, please do not over-compress or over-filter the audio track of your Latvian QT file. By uploading a high quality version of your audio, we can give you the best level of accuracy.
Aside from QT, do you support other types of audio/video files?
Yes, we do! You can convert the following file types in Latvian with Sonix:
Is a QT file the same as a MOV file?
Both use Apple's QuickTime container format; .qt is the older extension and .mov is the current standard. The contents are structurally the same, which is why most tools treat them identically.
Why won't my QT file open in my media player?
Some modern players only recognize the .mov extension even though the container is the same. Renaming the file from .qt to .mov often restores playback, though very old files may use discontinued codecs that require conversion.
Can Sonix transcribe Latvian audio and video files?
Yes. Upload your audio or video file, select Latvian as the spoken language, and Sonix generates a transcript you can edit, search, and export in formats such as DOCX, PDF, and SRT.
Does Latvian transcription keep diacritics like ā, č, and ž?
Yes. Transcripts preserve the full Latvian alphabet, including macrons and carons, in both the online editor and exported files.
Does Latvian transcription handle Latgalian speech?
The Latvian language model is built around standard Latvian, which is based on the Middle dialect. Strongly Latgalian speech from eastern Latvia may transcribe less consistently and usually benefits from a manual review pass.
