Tamil movies, short films and features, transcribed properly
Tamil (தமிழ்): Tamil-script output; formal speech does noticeably better than rapid colloquial Chennai speech. Diglossia is real in Tamil — written-style formal audio (news, lectures) is strong; spoken-style needs review.
Movie & film subtitless in particular: Dialogue in the film's own language becomes a timestamped SRT/VTT ready for festival submissions, distributor deliverables and accessibility passes. Note: subtitles come out in the language spoken on screen — this is transcription, not translation. A festival-ready SRT of the film's dialogue, a VTT for web players, and searchable dialogue for the edit — then shift or renumber cues in the free browser subtitle toolkit.
