What audio and video formats does 3Scribe support for transcription?
At 3Scribe, we support a wide range of supported audio and video formats to make uploading your recordings fast, simple, and compatible with nearly any device. Whether you’re submitting a voice memo, podcast episode, interview, webinar, or screen recording, we likely support the format you’re using. This ensures you get high-quality transcriptions without worrying about file compatibility.
We designed our platform to work seamlessly with both audio-only files and full video content. After you upload a file, our system automatically extracts the audio track. Then, it transcribes the audio using our highly accurate AI engine. This process happens quickly, so you get your transcription results in minimal time.
Supported Audio File Formats
We accept virtually all common audio file types, including:
.3ga, .aac, .ac3, .aif, .aiff, .alac, .amr, .ape, .au, .dss, .flac, .m4a, .m4b, .m4p, .mp3, .mpga, .ogg, .oga, .mogg, .opus, .qcp, .tta, .voc, .wav, .wv
These formats cover everything from highly compressed mobile recordings to high-fidelity studio audio. Whether you record lectures on your phone, interviews with external microphones, or music in a professional DAW (digital audio workstation), 3Scribe supports your files.
Supported Video File Formats
We handle a wide selection of video formats, including:
.avi, .webm, .mov, .mp4, .m4v, .mxf
If your video contains spoken content — such as interviews, meetings, webinars, or presentations — we extract the audio track. Then we transcribe it with the same precision and attention to detail as we do for audio-only files. This means you can confidently upload videos from smartphones, cameras, or screen capture software without extra steps.
