Transcribe MKV to text
MKV is a flexible container favored for OBS captures, recorded streams, and long sessions because it can hold multiple audio and video tracks. That flexibility makes it common in production archives before editing begins.
BriefMeet transcribes audible speech from the MKV upload, helping teams search a long capture and extract discussion notes without turning it into a different video format.

MKV transcription FAQ
These answers are specific to working with .mkv files in BriefMeet.
Can BriefMeet transcribe an MKV recorded with OBS?
Yes. Upload the MKV capture and BriefMeet will process its readable audio for transcription.
What if my MKV contains multiple audio tracks?
MKV can store several tracks. For dependable results, make sure the speakers you need are audible in the primary or mixed audio used by the recording.
Do I need to convert a long MKV recording before upload?
No separate conversion is normally needed. The MKV file still has to fit the current upload limit for your plan.
