Whispering

MIT License Python Versions

CI CodeQL Typos

Streaming transcriber with whisper. Enough machine power is needed to transcribe in real time.

Setup

pip install -U git+https://github.com/shirayu/whispering.git

# If you use GPU, install proper torch and torchaudio
# Example : torch for CUDA 11.6
pip install -U torch torchaudio --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu116

Example of microphone

# Run in English
whispering --language en --model tiny
  • --help shows full options
  • --model set the model name to use. Larger models will be more accurate, but may not be able to transcribe in real time.
  • --language sets the language to transcribe. The list of languages are shown with whispering -h
  • --no-progress disables the progress message
  • -t sets temperatures to decode. You can set several like (-t 0.0 -t 0.1 -t 0.5), but too many temperatures exhaust decoding time
  • --debug outputs logs for debug

Parse interval

If you want quick response, set small -n and add --allow-padding. However, this may sacrifice the accuracy.

whispering --language en --model tiny -n 20 --allow-padding

Example of web socket

No security mechanism. Please make secure with your responsibility.

Run with --host and --port.

Host

whispering --language en --model tiny --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000

You can set --allow-padding and other options.

Client

whispering --model tiny --host ADDRESS_OF_HOST --port 8000 --mode client

You can set -n and other options.

Tips

PortAudio Error

If you get OSError: PortAudio library not found: Install portaudio

# Ubuntu
sudo apt-get install portaudio19-dev
