# 🚀WhisperS2T-transcriber🚀

* Uses the powerful WhisperS2T and Ctranslate2 libraries to batch transcribe multiple files

## Requirements

1) 🐍[Python 3.11](https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-3117/)

2) 📁[Git](https://git-scm.com/downloads)

3) 📁[Git Large File Storage](https://git-lfs.com/)

8) 🪟 Windows (linux not yet supported)

   > You can modify the installation instructions manually for Linux, I just don't have Linux in order to test them reliably.  You can do this by analyzing the ```setup_gpu.py``` or ```setup_cpu_only.py``` file to see what libraries are required.

# Installation

Download the latest release and extract the files your computer.  Navigate to the respository folder, create a command prompt, and run the following commands:

```

python -m venv .

```

```

.\Scripts\activate

```

  > Run this again to activate the environment each time you restart the program.

Select GPU (includes CPU) or CPU-only installation:

```

python setup_gpu.py

```

```

python setup_cpu_only.py

```

# Usage

```

python whispers2t_batch_gui.py

```

The program will process any and all of the following file types:

* ```.mp3```, ```.wav```, ```.flac```, ```.wma```, ```.aac```, ```.m4a```, ```.avi```, ```.mkv```, ```.mp4```, ```.asf```, ```.amr```.

### Important

All transcriptions are output in the same folder of the file that was transcribed.  If you'd like to change this behavior put an issue on Github requesting it.
