Even for English (which surely has the best support) anything outside of urban American accents is still incredibly weak - you can pretty much guarantee very noticeable mistakes on even highly intelligible mainstream urban British/Irish/Aussie/Kiwi/SA accents. Stronger regional / rural accents & dialects usually render generated subtitles entirely useless.
Definitely a domain a million miles from being solved if even English is this bad.
