MP4 to text questions

How do I convert MP4 to text?

Continue to the workspace, upload the MP4, and start transcription. ScribeZip returns speech from the audio track as text.

Does ScribeZip understand what appears on screen?

No. It transcribes speech from the audio track. Silent slides, visual actions, and on-screen text are not added.

Can Whisper identify speakers in a video?

Whisper transcribes the spoken content but does not assign speaker labels. That requires a separate diarization model.

Can I export subtitles for an MP4?

Yes. Download SRT or VTT, or export TXT and JSON.
