This fork has Windows path fix and ffmpeg use NVENC. Tested fully working on Windows 11 & RTX 2080
This repository uses ffmpeg and OpenAI's Whisper to automatically generate and overlay subtitles on any video.
To get started, you'll need Python 3.7 or newer. Install the binary by running the following command:
pip install git+https://github.com/brokeDude2901/auto-subtitle.git
pip install python-ffmpeg
The following command will generate a subtitled/video.mp4 file contained the input video with overlayed subtitles.
python -m auto_subtitle.cli /path/to/video.mp4 -o subtitled/
The default setting (which selects the small model) works well for transcribing English. You can optionally use a bigger model for better results (especially with other languages). The available models are tiny, tiny.en, base, base.en, small, small.en, medium, medium.en, large.
python -m auto_subtitle.cli /path/to/video.mp4 --model medium
Adding --task translate will translate the subtitles into English:
python -m auto_subtitle.cli /path/to/video.mp4 --task translate
Run the following to view all available options:
python -m auto_subtitle.cli --help
