MKV (Matroska) is an open video container. OBS saves screen recordings and streams as MKV by default, and many downloaded videos use it. Upload a .mkv file and Scriptivox turns the speech in it into timed WebVTT captions, the subtitle format HTML5 video players and most course platforms use.
MKV files come from OBS recordings, video downloads and media servers. Upload the .mkv file as it is; there's no need to remux it to MP4.
Leave it on auto-detect or pick one of more than 100 languages. Turn on speaker recognition when more than one person talks.
Read every line in the editor, fix any word, then download the .vtt file, ready for YouTube, your video editor or your player.
