Overview of the Week

\n

Trying to decide whether I want to move when my lease is up in August. I hate moving. I want to get closer to the city, but even going back to beacon looks like an extra $1000 a month.

Transcribing Videos with FFMPEG and Whisper.cpp

\n

This week, I discovered a quick and efficient way to transcribe video files using FFMPEG and Whisper.cpp.

\n
    \n
  1. Convert the video files to 16-bit WAV audio format using FFMPEG:
    2. \n
\n
for file in *.m4v; do ffmpeg -i \"$file\" -ar 16000 -ac 1 -c:a pcm_s16le \"${file%.m4v}.wav\"; done
\n
    \n
  1. Transcribe the resulting WAV files using Whisper.cpp:
    2. \n
\n
cd ~/whisper.cpp\nfor file in ~/Downloads/FieldTalk/*.wav; do ./main -f \"$file\" -l en --output-vtt; done
\n
    \n
  1. Convert .vtt to plaintext
    2. \n
\n
awk '!/-->/' CodeAndNature.wav.vtt >> CodeAndNature.wav.txt
\n

Books, Movies, TV
