Job Processing - Kino AI Docs

Monitor the jobs Kino runs after you upload or import media: transcription, visual analysis, logging, and proxy generation.

Kino AI's Jobs Dashboard showing processing status of video files — Monitor AI processing progress for transcription, visual analysis, and logging

Job types

Jobs run in parallel when possible. Each one adds a different kind of metadata to your footage.

Job Type	Description	Typical Duration	Output
Transcription	Converts spoken dialogue into searchable text with speaker identification	1-2× real-time	Time-coded transcript with speaker labels
Visual Processing	Identifies objects, people, scenes, and visual elements	1-3× real-time	Time-coded visual metadata
Natural Language Description	Creates clip descriptions for logging	3-5× real-time	Natural-language descriptions and tags
Proxy generation	Creates proxies for remote playback and collaboration	0.5-1× real-time	Video proxies for playback

Troubleshooting

Common issues

Issue	Possible Cause	Solution
Jobs stuck at “Processing”	System resource limitations or unsupported file format	Check system resources, verify file compatibility, or restart the job
Slow processing speeds	Insufficient hardware resources or network limitations	Allocate more CPU/GPU resources or check network connection
Failed transcription jobs	Poor audio quality or unsupported language	Check audio tracks, or manually provide transcription for heavily accented speech
Missing visual analysis	Very dark or blurry footage	Adjust detection sensitivity in settings or add manual tags
