About

Transcriber is a desktop GUI for turning video and audio files into .srt and

.txt subtitles using faster-whisper. It works fully offline after the first

model download, supports multiple languages including Cantonese/Chinese, and

has optional domain hints for improved accuracy on specialized content (I-Ching,

finance, philosophy, geopolitics, AI, etc.).

It can also compress videos for YouTube (H.264 via ffmpeg) and upload them

with resumable upload support. YouTube upload requires your own Google OAuth

credentials — see youtube-setup.md after install for a 5-minute walkthrough.

Includes bundled ffmpeg.exe and ffprobe.exe, so no extra install needed.

Coverage is best-effort and depends on a winget package mapping to an NVD CPE entry. Absence here is not a guarantee of safety.
