# Note-Taker - Take Notes for Online Video
**📝 Integration of [yt-dlp](https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp),
[Faster Whisper](https://github.com/SYSTRAN/faster-whisper/tree/master)(from [Whisper](https://github.com/openai/whisper)),
[ChatGPT](https://chatgpt.com/), and [Notion](https://www.notion.so/) with GUI!**### Why Note-Taker?
- Quickly take notes into Notion by simply **pasting the URL/video/audio/subtitle/text file path!**
- Support thousands of sites including **YouTube** and **BiliBili**, check [supported sites](https://www.similarweb.com/zh-tw/website/imdb.com/).
- Utilize the **GPU** computing power of your local machine. Take notes with Whisper model for **free!**
> [!NOTE]
> **Spported Languages:** English, 简体中文, 繁體中文, Español, Français, Deutsch, Português, Русский, 日本語, العربية, हिन्दी, 한국어, Italiano> [!NOTE]
> The corresponding subtitles will be downloaded if available. -> No time/GPU comsuming for transcription. \
> **Spported Subtitles:** srt, vtt, ass> [!NOTE]
> **Update for v1.4.0**: Now Note-Taker produces higher quality notes in correct language! Also, disable GPT 3.5 for better maintenance, use 4o-mini instead.## Quick Start
### Prerequisite
- Your own [OpenAI API key](https://platform.openai.com/api-keys) (You need to have a balance)
- Your own [Notion API key](https://www.notion.so/my-integrations)
- Your own [Notion Database ID](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/67728038/where-to-find-database-id-for-my-database-in-notion)
([How to create a database](https://www.notion.so/help/guides/creating-a-database))
- [Permissions of your database for Notion API](https://developers.notion.com/docs/create-a-notion-integration#give-your-integration-page-permissions)
- FFmpeg: if you don't have FFmpeg, get it from [Download FFmpeg](https://ffmpeg.org/download.html)#### For those who want to use GPU power:
- CUDA Toolkit 12
- [cuBLAS for CUDA 12](https://developer.nvidia.com/cublas)
- [cuDNN 8 for CUDA 12](https://developer.nvidia.com/rdp/cudnn-archive)
**You can use CPU and Whisper API if you don't want to use a GPU**
> [!TIP]
> An easier way for me to use cuBLAS and cuDNN 8, in Faster Whisper GitHub:
> > **Download the libraries from Purfview's repository (Windows & Linux)**
> >
> > Purfview's [whisper-standalone-win](https://github.com/Purfview/whisper-standalone-win) provides the required NVIDIA libraries
> > for Windows & Linux in a [single archive](https://github.com/Purfview/whisper-standalone-win/releases/tag/libs).
> > Decompress the archive and place the libraries in a directory included in the `PATH`.
>
> You can also place the archives in the same folder as the executable or Python code below> [!NOTE]
> Before using ChatGPT API and Whisper API(not necessary), check [Pricing - OpenAI](https://openai.com/api/pricing/)## Usage: Executable by [PyInstaller](https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller) (Windows)
1. [Download Executable](https://drive.google.com/file/d/10KHfc_ePeJANmnRfeksi1xqCk_Vi8qnQ/view?usp=sharing)
2. Run it and setup the API tokens
4. Paste the link/file path and then setup link/file language and your preference

## Usage: Python Usage

1. Clone the repo
2. Install Python packages
```
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
3. Run Python script and setup the API keys by GUI (like in Usage: Executable)
```
python main.py
```
4. Paste the link/file path and then setup link/file language and your preference (like in Usage: Executable)## Known Issues
- App crashes and exits suddenly after transcribing: The app will save transcription into a `.txt` file in the same folder.
Use it to take notes. Or choose a smaller Whisper model.
