Transcript formats
Completed media jobs and History rows can export transcript content. Choose the format before selecting Download. Changing the export format does not rerun transcription.
| Format | Contents |
|---|---|
| TXT | Plain recognized or translated text. |
| SRT | Timed subtitle cues. Requires timestamped segments. |
| VTT | WebVTT subtitle cues. Requires timestamped segments. |
| JSON | Structured source, language, timing, translation and WhisperARC version data. |
| DOCX | Formatted Word document with source details and separate transcription or translation sections. |
Timing and translated results
SRT and VTT need timestamped segments. If a result does not contain timing data, WhisperARC does not create an empty subtitle file. TXT remains the safest format for short live dictations that do not expose segments.
When translation was applied, JSON and DOCX can include the source and translated text. Subtitle exports use the final displayed result with the available timing.
Audio formats from History
History rows with playable audio can also export the recording. WhisperARC copies WAV directly and converts the other supported formats for you.
| Format | Use |
|---|---|
| WAV | Lossless copy of the locally preserved History recording. |
| MP3 | Widely compatible compressed audio. |
| M4A / MP4 | AAC audio in common Apple or MP4 containers. |
| FLAC | Lossless compressed audio. |
| OGG | Vorbis audio in an Ogg container. |
| OPUS | Efficient speech-oriented compressed audio. |
