Processing & Performance
How long does transcription take?
Processing time depends on the audio length, quality, and model size. A 30-minute audio file typically takes 5-15 minutes depending on your hardware and chosen model size.
Which model size should I choose?
Choose based on your needs: Tiny (fastest, basic accuracy), Base (balanced, recommended), Small (better quality), Medium (high quality), or Large (best quality, slowest). For most users, Base or Small models provide the best balance.
Can I use GPU acceleration?

Do transcriptions include timestamps?
Yes, all export formats include precise timestamps. SRT format provides subtitle-style timing, while JSON and CSV formats include start/end times for each segment.
Troubleshooting
What if I get a 'Model Not Found' error?
Ensure you have an internet connection for the first launch, check that you have sufficient disk space (2GB minimum), and try restarting the application. The model download is required only once.
Why is processing slow?
Close other applications to free up memory, try using a smaller model (Tiny or Base), ensure you're using the recommended device setting, and check that your computer has adequate cooling.
What if my audio file isn't supported?
Verify the file format is supported (MP3, WAV, FLAC, M4A, AAC, OGG, WMA). Try converting the file to MP3 or WAV format, or check that the file isn't corrupted.
The application crashes - what should I do?
Update to the latest version, check system requirements, try running with CPU-only mode, and ensure you have adequate RAM and storage space available.
