Understanding Thai MPGA files
Standard Thai, based on the Central Thai spoken in and around Bangkok, dominates broadcasting, education, and most recorded media, and it is the variety speech recognition models target. Regional varieties — Northern Thai (Kham Mueang), Northeastern Thai (Isan, closely related to Lao), and Southern Thai — differ noticeably in tones and vocabulary, so heavily dialectal recordings typically need more editing.

Frequently asked questions
How to improve the accuracy of your Thai transcripts?
Start by improving the quality of the Thai MPGA 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 Thai MPGA file that I upload?
Yes, please do not over-compress or over-filter the audio track of your Thai MPGA file. By uploading a high quality version of your audio, we can give you the best level of accuracy.
Aside from MPGA, do you support other types of audio/video files?
Yes, we do! You can convert the following file types in Thai with Sonix:
Why won't my MPGA file open in my media player?
Some players do not recognize the .mpga extension even though the audio inside is standard MPEG audio. Renaming the file with an .mp3 extension usually lets any MP3-capable player open it.
Is an MPGA file the same as an MP3?
In most cases the audio data is identical, since both typically use MPEG-1 Audio Layer III encoding. The .mpga extension simply appears more often on audio tracks extracted from MPEG video files.
Can Sonix transcribe Thai audio and video files?
Yes. Upload your Thai audio or video file, and Sonix converts it to text that you can proofread in the in-browser editor and export to formats such as Word documents or subtitle files.
Does Thai transcription handle Isan or other regional dialects?
Thai speech recognition is built around Standard (Central) Thai. Recordings with strong Isan, Northern, or Southern dialect speech can still be transcribed, but plan for additional proofreading time in the editor.
Can I create Thai subtitles from my transcript?
Yes. After transcribing and polishing your Thai transcript, you can export it as SRT or VTT subtitle files for video captioning.
