Understanding Portuguese RM files
Portuguese has two major standards: Brazilian Portuguese and European Portuguese, which differ noticeably in pronunciation, rhythm, and some vocabulary. African varieties spoken in Angola, Mozambique, and other Lusophone countries generally follow the European standard, while Brazil itself has distinct regional accents such as Carioca, Paulista, and Northeastern speech.

Frequently asked questions
How to improve the accuracy of your Portuguese transcripts?
Start by improving the quality of the Portuguese RM 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 Portuguese RM file that I upload?
Yes, please do not over-compress or over-filter the audio track of your Portuguese RM file. By uploading a high quality version of your audio, we can give you the best level of accuracy.
Aside from RM, do you support other types of audio/video files?
Yes, we do! You can convert the following file types in Portuguese with Sonix:
Why won't my RM file play on my computer?
RM is a proprietary RealNetworks format that modern operating systems no longer support out of the box. You typically need RealPlayer, or a player like VLC that offers partial RM support.
Should I convert my RM files to a modern format?
For long-term preservation, converting to a widely supported format like MP4 is a reasonable step, since RM playback support continues to shrink. Keep the original file as well, because re-encoding a lossy format can reduce quality slightly.
Does Sonix support both Brazilian and European Portuguese?
Yes. You can upload audio or video in either variety, transcribe it, edit the transcript in your browser, and export it in a range of formats.
Can Sonix transcribe Portuguese audio with accented characters?
Yes. Portuguese transcripts include the language's diacritics, such as ã, õ, and ç, and they carry through to exported files.
Can I translate a Portuguese transcript into English?
Yes. After transcribing your Portuguese audio, you can translate the transcript into English or other supported languages and export the result.
