Show HN: MP3 to Text
- mxuribe 6y agoThis would have been genius in the napster days of yore; why seek out and download mp3s yourself? Just sit back and have people send stuff to you! I kid, i kid! ;-)
- Lemmih 6y agoHow does this work? And is it more accurate than YouTube's automatic captions?
- rock_artist 6y agoVery cool but how do I know what languages supported? It says "VEED is able to recognise and transcribe languages from all over the world - English, Spanish, French, Chinese, and many more". From my experience with NLP/AST the tricky part is models for some less common languages.
- sabbakeynejad 6y agoThis is true, we support over 55 languages. The more popular the language the better the results.
- remram 6y agoIs there even a good offline version of this? There are some opensource tools for speed-to-text but what about batch processing of audio files?
- synesthesiam 6y agoYou may be interested in voice2json for offline batch processing: https://voice2json.org https://voice2json.org Here's an example using GNU parallel: http://voice2json.org/recipes.html#parallel-wav-recognition http://voice2json.org/recipes.html#parallel-wav-recognition
- remram 6y agoWow this is exactly what I had in mind for "opensource tools for speed-to-text". I didn't know it did this too. Thanks a lot!
- yorwba 6y ago> voice2json is optimized for: > Sets of voice commands that are described well by a grammar > Commands with uncommon words or pronunciations > Commands or intents that can vary at runtime Doesn't sound like what you'd want for a generic transcription service.
- synesthesiam 6y agoIt supports open-ended transcription too: https://voice2json.org/commands.html#open-transcription https://voice2json.org/commands.html#open-transcription Users have reported good accuracy with the English Deepspeech profile: https://github.com/synesthesiam/voice2json-profiles https://github.com/synesthesiam/voice2json-profiles
- rubyron 6y agoWhat’s the pricing? What speech-to-text engine is being used? Clicking on the Sign Up button on iOS Safari does nothing. Clicking on the Get Started button takes me to an Upload Video form - not what I expected from a mp3-to-text service.
- remram 6y agoApparently you're limited to 50 MB for free, which is pretty short if you can't send audio files but only videos.

- fredley 6y agoMP3 to text? Why does it ask me to upload a video?
- sabbakeynejad 6y agoOpps, thats a UX problem. Will get this fixed now.
- remram 6y ago"MP3 to Text" seems very inaccurate since you can only upload video files. In fact uploading an .mp3 file shows "File type not supported". edit: I get it, OP just keeps submitting his service with different descriptions until one gets some upvotes. Only took 25 tries to get 30 points. Shameful.
- arteez 6y agoJust goes to show that people upvote anything if it sounds cool, and don't bother checking it out.
