Albanian live streams and VODs, transcribed properly
Albanian (shqip): Latin-script output; Gheg and Tosk varieties both transcribe, output leans standard (Tosk-based). Kosovo and North Macedonia recordings with Serbian or Macedonian mixing deserve review.
Live streams in particular: Long-form audio is where batch transcription shines — the whole stream becomes searchable. Clip-worthy moments found by search, highlight text for socials, an archive of every stream.
