Understanding Marathi CAF files
Standard Marathi is based on the educated speech of Pune and the surrounding Desh region, but speech varies noticeably across Maharashtra: Varhadi in Vidarbha differs in pronunciation and vocabulary, and transitional varieties such as Malvani on the southern Konkan coast and Ahirani in Khandesh shade into neighboring Konkani and Khandeshi. Urban Marathi speech also mixes freely with Hindi and English, so recordings often contain code-switched passages.

Frequently asked questions
How to improve the accuracy of your Marathi transcripts?
Start by improving the quality of the Marathi CAF 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 Marathi CAF file that I upload?
Yes, please do not over-compress or over-filter the audio track of your Marathi CAF file. By uploading a high quality version of your audio, we can give you the best level of accuracy.
Aside from CAF, do you support other types of audio/video files?
Yes, we do! You can convert the following file types in Marathi with Sonix:
Why won't my CAF file play on Windows?
CAF is an Apple container that most Windows applications do not support natively. You can open it with a third-party player such as VLC, or convert it to WAV or MP3 for broader compatibility.
How large can a CAF file be?
CAF uses 64-bit file offsets, so there is no practical size limit and recordings can run for many hours. This is the main advantage over WAV and AIFF, which are capped at 4 GB.
Can Sonix transcribe Marathi audio and video files?
Yes. Upload your Marathi audio or video file, select Marathi as the language, and Sonix generates a transcript in Devanagari script that you can edit, search, and export.
Does Marathi transcription handle Hindi and English code-switching?
Spoken Marathi often mixes in Hindi and English words, especially in urban recordings. The transcript editor lets you review and correct any mixed-language passages alongside the synced audio.
Can I export Marathi transcripts as subtitles?
Yes. After transcribing, you can export Marathi transcripts to subtitle formats such as SRT and VTT, as well as document formats like DOCX and PDF.
