Original Summary

Title: VoxScribe: a free offline tool that turns audio and video into .srt captions, now with batch import VoxScribe started as a voice dictation app for Windows: hold a key, talk, and the text is typed into any window. It runs Whisper on your own PC, so nothing is uploaded. File import came next, so an mp3, mp4 or mov dropped in gets an .srt written next to it. What came out of working on it: Whisper returns long segments, so raw captions run too long to read. A splitter now cuts them into cards of two lines of 42 characters. CPU only means slow on older laptops. The model took a few minutes to load during testing. Feedback from a commenter was that creators pay for time saved, not accuracy in the abstract. That shaped the latest update: folder batch import with a progress bar, pause and cancel. The core is free and open source (MIT). An optional $14 Pro version adds batch import and a few extras, and importing a single file is always free. Limits: Windows only, timing is per segment and not per word, and names and jargon still need a proofread. https://github.com/ahmedhmam1994/voxscribe-ai-voice-dictation What would be useful in a tool like this that isn’t there yet?   submitted by   /u/Strong-Leg-9636 [link]   [comments]
