Slovenian video to transcript
Drop in the video file without converting it: MP4, MOV, MKV, WEBM, AVI, 3GP or a screen recording from your phone. The audio is pulled out on our server, so every timestamp still points to the right moment in the video. If the video is online, choose Import from link and paste a public link from YouTube, TikTok, Vimeo, Dropbox or Google Drive, or a direct link to the file; only the sound is downloaded.
The finished transcript opens next to the player. Click any line to hear it and type the correction; nothing needs to be saved by hand.
Dialects and standard Slovene
Slovenia is small but has many dialects, and a speaker from Prekmurje or the Littoral region can sound very different from a Ljubljana newsreader. The model writes standard Slovene spellings, so dialect speech comes out as a normalised version that may miss local words. Formal speech, lectures and news give the cleanest drafts.
Spoken Slovene also drops vowels and shortens words (a boš for ali boš), and the draft may write the full standard form. Older speakers sometimes use Serbo-Croatian words, and younger ones mix in English; both appear as spoken.
Slovenian videos people bring
Common uploads:
- University lectures and online courses, for notes.
- Interviews filmed for a diplomska or magistrska naloga.
- Municipal council sessions and public meetings recorded on video.
- YouTube videos and podcasts, for Slovenian subtitles.
- Company training videos and recorded meetings.
Slovenian subtitles and exports
Export SRT or VTT for subtitles (podnapisi). The files are UTF-8, so č, š and ž display correctly in YouTube Studio and common video editors. DOCX and PDF suit a thesis appendix or meeting record, and TXT is easy to paste anywhere. Timestamps and speaker names are optional in each export. If you subtitle your own channel, upload the SRT in YouTube Studio as a Slovenian track so viewers can switch it on, and reuse the TXT export as a starting point for the video description.
Accuracy and English
Slovenian has less training data than the larger European languages. Clear speech gives a usable draft that needs a careful read; strong dialects, crosstalk and distant microphones need more editing. Speaker labels are available on paid plans and with a Minute Pack.
The transcript stays in Slovenian; there is no built-in translation. To read it in English, open the Google Translate link on the transcript, or use the AI prompt export to hand the text to ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini. For audio-only recordings, see the Slovenian audio to text page.
