About pyTranscriber
pyTranscriber is a desktop application that generates automatic transcription and subtitles for audio and video files through a graphical user interface. It uses the Google Speech Recognition API via Autosub, with recent versions also referencing Whisper processing, and outputs subtitles as .srt files and transcriptions as .txt files with on-screen display.
An internet connection is required because processing uses the Google Cloud Speech Server. Accuracy varies with audio quality and clarity, and the source notes clean audio without background noise, music, or effects and a single clear, slow speaker gives more accurate results.
