- Make a video with quality sound
The most important condition for a perfectly transcribed video is the sound quality. Remember that you will need not only a camera or mobile phone, but also a good quality microphone.

Pro tip
If you need to transcribe very long videos (more than two hours in length), we recommend that you first split the file into several shorter parts. This will also make the resulting transcripts easier to edit.
