## Installation

Prerequisites:

- git for cloning this repo

- Python 3.8 or higher, with pip

For faster results, it is recommended to use a GPU with CUDA support. Running transcription on the CPU is significantly slower (up to 10~20x slower, depending on the hardware).  

The optional dependencies required for GPU acceleration can be installed with the `[cuda]` extra when installing the package.

### Install latest release

Use the following to install the latest release in an isolated environment using [`pipx`](https://pipx.pypa.io), with CUDA libraries for GPU acceleration:

```shell

pipx install whispersubs[cuda]

```

N.B. omit the `[cuda]` extra if you don't have a GPU or don't want to use it.

Replace `pipx` with `pip` from the command above if you want to manually manage your own environment (or install user- or system-wide).

### Install repository version

You can install the latest version from this repository with the following command:

```shell

pipx install 'whispersubs[cuda] @ git+https://github.com/andreabak/whispersubs.git'

```

Usually this is going to be the same as the latest release, but it might contain some additional features or bugfixes that are not yet released.

## Usage

WhisperSubs can be used from the command line. The basic usage requires an input file, which will be the source for the transcription. The output will be a subtitle file in the SRT format in the same directory as the input file. The language will be automatically detected.

```shell

whispersubs 

```

For a full list of options, run:

```shell

whispersubs --help

```
