Transcription transform

MK.IO offers an AI-powered VOD transcription feature that allows you to generate subtitles from audio tracks. The generated subtitles are delivered in WebVTT format into the output asset and can be subsequently added to the manifest of the asset with a track insertion transform.

On-demand transcription is only available for MP4 assets.

MK.IO provides the built-in Predefined_ACSVodTranscription preset for this workflow. When selecting the preset, specify the original language of the audio track using a BCP-47 locale.

MK.IO uses Azure AI Speech for transcription. Azure maintains the current language and voice support table for speech-to-text locales. Confirm that the locale required by your workflow is available before creating the transform.
