What

A gradio frontend for generating transcribed or translated subtitles for videos using OpenAI Whisper locally.

Why

I just wanted a nice frontend where you can just drop a video or url and it will spit out subs. Whisper is amazing but I haven't found that many implementations, especially ones that can be run locally.

Install

python -m venv .
.\Scripts\activate

# if this doesn't work, pip install the following manually: openai-whisper ffmpeg torch gradio

pip install -r requirements.txt

python server.py

To share, add --remote=True.

Features

• Input a video or any other media file
• Input a YouTube URL
• Transcribe
• Translate to English
• Select different models for your hardware
• CUDA support
• Output .srt or video file with embedded subtitles

Troubleshooting

If the output says gpu available: False you might need to pip install a different version of Torch for your specific hardware
