I. INTRODUCTION

ur_audio_sub made generating captions easy for any audio files & youtube video using OpenAI Whisper. Multiple languages support.

II. REFERENCES

You can skip all of these introductions by viewing the Video demo here. Let's start generating audio transcription effortlessly.

2.1. First thing first

You can find the demo Jupiter notebook here, make a copy and play with this package on Google Colab to generate your first transcription with only 3 steps and 5 lines of code literally.

Install whisper package

You will need to install OpenAI whisper package from source using pip: Let's runt this command in the terminal fist: !pip install git+https://github.com/openai/whisper.git -q

Google Colab is highly recommended

Go to the Google Colab menu: Select Runtime > Change runtime type and make sure that GPU has been chosen. You can run this AI model way faster with GPU on Google Colab than the normal CPU or your personal computer.

2.2. How to install this package?

• Using pip to installed pre-builded package on Pypip pip install ur_audio_sub
• If you want to use the latest pydata_master version instead of the stable one, you can install it from source with the following command: pip install git+https://github.com/thinh-vu/ur_audio_sub.git@main

(*) You might need to insert a ! before your command when running terminal commands on Google Colab.

2.3. Where can I find the generated caption?

Please find it in the same folder where you store the audio file. On Google Colab, you can find it in the root folder when generating subtitles for Youtube videos.

Function references

• Run this command first to import the package to your working environment before using any functions below from ur_audio_sub import *

• ytSub(link='YOUR_YOUTUBE_URL', model='medium', language='', translate=False, lmt=LMT, basepath=ROOT_DIR) or ytSub('YOUR_YOUTUBE_URL') in short

• subGen_path(file_path, model='medium', language='', translate=False) or subGen_path('YOUR_FILE_PATH') in short

• In case of any issue that happens, you can't generate the Youtube Video caption with ytSub function; try the subGen_path function with the audio file downloaded path to solving that issue. You can also try this terminal command instead !whisper 'PATH_TO_YOUR_AUDIO_FILE' --model medium.

III. APENDICES

• This package has been built on top of pytube and OpenAI Whisper:
  • pytube is a genuine, lightweight, dependency-free Python library (and command-line utility) for downloading YouTube videos.
  • whisper: Whisper is a general-purpose speech recognition model. It is trained on a large dataset of diverse audio and is also a multi-task model that can perform multilingual speech recognition as well as speech translation and language identification.
