News for Auto-Editor 29.5.0

whisper.cpp is now integrated into auto-editor. This technology allows for transcribing audio, bypassing the need to create subtitles manually.

With a patch set to ffmpeg, word-level transcriptions are possible too.

If you're on MacOS, you can play with these features by downloading a model, then run:

auto-editor whisper example.mp4 ggml-medium.bin

You can see the various options via:

auto-editor whisper --help

This is still an experimental feature, hence Windows and Linux are not supported yet. I'm also still thinking about how best to integrate these new capabilities in auto-editor proper.
