Hello! I’ve been importing all the MP3 files from my university Chinese textbook without any problems — it’s been a lifesaver. But recently, many of the audio files are only being partially transcribed by the automatic AI transcription: for some unknown reason, it skips the first half and only transcribes the second half of the audio. Do you have any advice on how to fix this? I really need these audios to be fully imported and transcribed in LingQ.
Here is an example of an audio it cant be fully transcribed:
Thanks for your reply. I’ve just tried it — it’s the same problem: the first half of the transcription is missing, while the second half is properly transcribed.
Thanks for giving it a try. Do you have issues only with those specific files downloaded from that same source? I asked out team to investigate the problem.
I got curious and tried this with Vibe . I can’t read mandarin, so let me know if the transcription below is correct for 14.mp3. I use Vibe sometimes when LingQ does not produce the result I want.
The AI transcriptions of most of my recent French audio uploads/imports have been bonkers. Much worse than the usual “hallucinations” it sometimes produces. The transcripts have always been a little quirky, but lately they are unusable.
This is my primary use for LingQ, so it’s a major pain. On these new ones, some are wrong from the beginning, and some become so after 10 minutes or so. I assume that the transcription is jumping ahead to some place much later in the audio, because after moving ahead several pages in the text it still doesn’t match the audio.
I appreciate the team’s efforts in looking into this.
Hi @sockdoll ! Could you please share an example of such a lesson with issues, or the source audio you transcribed? This will help to figure out the case.
Unfortunately I deleted the most egregious examples and tried reuploading them. When they failed a second time I deleted them again, and deleted the audio files from my computer and moved on to other things. Fortunately I haven’t run into this in the last few days. If I do I’ll definitely contact you with the particulars.
