Understanding Norwegian FLV files
Norwegian has two official written standards, Bokmål and Nynorsk, but no single standard spoken form — regional dialects from Oslo, Bergen, Trøndelag, and northern Norway differ noticeably in pronunciation, intonation, and vocabulary, and are used freely in broadcasting and formal settings. Automated transcription typically renders speech in Bokmål-style written Norwegian regardless of the speaker's dialect.

Frequently asked questions
How to improve the accuracy of your Norwegian transcripts?
Start by improving the quality of the Norwegian FLV 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 Norwegian FLV file that I upload?
Yes, please do not over-compress or over-filter the audio track of your Norwegian FLV file. By uploading a high quality version of your audio, we can give you the best level of accuracy.
Aside from FLV, do you support other types of audio/video files?
Yes, we do! You can convert the following file types in Norwegian with Sonix:
Why won't my FLV file play on my computer?
FLV was designed for Adobe Flash Player, which was discontinued at the end of 2020, so modern browsers and many media players no longer support it. Players such as VLC can still open FLV files, or you can convert them to MP4 for broader compatibility.
Do I need to convert FLV to MP4 before transcribing?
No, FLV files can be uploaded directly for transcription. Converting to MP4 is only needed if you also want the video to play in modern browsers or editing software.
Does Sonix transcribe Norwegian in Bokmål or Nynorsk?
Automated Norwegian transcripts generally follow Bokmål written conventions, since Bokmål is the more widely used written standard. You can edit the transcript into Nynorsk in the Sonix editor before exporting.
Can Sonix handle Norwegian dialects like Bergen Norwegian or Trøndersk?
Yes — you upload your audio, Sonix transcribes it, and you can correct any dialect-specific passages in the editor. Speech closer to standard Eastern Norwegian typically needs fewer corrections than heavier regional dialects.
Should I choose Norwegian or Danish for my Scandinavian audio?
Choose the language actually being spoken. Written Norwegian and Danish look similar, but their pronunciation differs substantially, so selecting the correct language gives the speech model the right acoustic match.
