# Vink - an OpenAI Whisper standalone distribution
[](https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.10471161)
This is a stand-alone application that packages [OpenAI's Whisper](https://github.com/openai/whisper) into a distribution that does not require users to have Python installed. Additionally, it provides a minimalistic graphical user interface for transcription.
## Installation on Windows 10+
Please download the zipped distribution from Zenodo and unpack it to a target location of your choice:
* [2024-01-08 Build from zenodo.org](https://zenodo.org/records/10471161/files/vink-installer.exe?download=1), MD5 checksum: d94d38f8db81ea1b9338e152496cc270
## Usage on Windows
Please install by double clicking on the downloaded installer. Running `vink.exe` (e.g. from your start-up menu) will fire up the graphical user interface, allowing you to specify input and output files, a model and device to run on.
If you want to work with `whisper`'s command line interface instead, you can do so by providing arguments on the command_line:
```
vink --help
```
## Linux
Currently, there is no (working) stand-alone packaging for Linux due to issues in [pyinstaller](https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller)'s handling of PySide6.
If you are still interested in using the GUI from Ubuntu/Debian, the following sequence of commands will install dependencies and run locally:
```
sudo apt install ffmpeg python3 python3-pip git
git clone https://github.com/ssciwr/vink.git
cd vink
python -m pip install -r requirements.txt
python vink.py
```
