Speech to Text in Arabic

I am surprised that Adobe has some languages included in Speech to Text (Transcribe) feature but not a major language which is used and spoken by over 350 million people which is Arabic? With so many Arabic production features now that are aired and uploaded to many online streaming services, it is CRITICAL that Adobe pays respect to it's users who work in Arabic content/film/TV series.  Now that this request is as important as any new update, it is getting huge attention in the media and NLE users everywhere. So I hope that in the next update 23.1 Premiere Pro will have Arabic included in Speech to Text.

For podcasts, Reels, and shorts, If you release features in Adobe Premiere to have an Arabic caption generator, it will be supper in use, and many content creatures will use it.

There are several major languages yet to be included in their transcription services. Which started with English, then some of the other European languages. They don't even have all European languages yet. But we all want more languages soonest ... and need them, of course.

 

Arabic by the way is one of the most beautiful spoken languages to listen to ...

Dear Adobe Support Team,

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to express my deep frustration and disappointment regarding the current limitations of Adobe Premiere Pro, particularly its lack of support for Arabic auto captioning. As a loyal customer who relies heavily on Premiere Pro for professional video editing, this issue has severely impacted my workflow and has led to significant delays in completing projects.

It is incredibly frustrating to find that despite the advancements in technology and the diverse needs of your user base, Adobe Premiere Pro still does not offer native support for Arabic auto captioning. As you may be aware, accurate and timely captioning is essential in today's multimedia landscape, especially in reaching global audiences and ensuring accessibility for all viewers.

Having to manually input Arabic captions not only consumes valuable time and resources but also introduces the risk of errors and inconsistencies, ultimately compromising the quality of the final product. This manual process not only disrupts my workflow but also undermines the efficiency and effectiveness of Adobe Premiere Pro as a professional editing tool.

As a paying customer who subscribes to Adobe's Creative Cloud services, I find it unacceptable that such a basic feature is lacking, especially considering the monthly fees I am charged for access to your software suite. I believe that Adobe has a responsibility to its clients to continually enhance its products and address the evolving needs of its user community.

I urge you to prioritize the implementation of Arabic auto caption support in Adobe Premiere Pro as soon as possible. By doing so, you will not only demonstrate your commitment to customer satisfaction but also empower your users to create content more efficiently and inclusively.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I sincerely hope to see swift action and improvements in the near future.
