Whisper (CLI)
Use whisper to transcribe audio locally.
Quick start
- whisper /path/audio.mp3 --model medium --output_format txt --output_dir .
- whisper /path/audio.m4a --task translate --output_format srt
Notes
- Models download to ~/.cache/whisper on first run.
- --model defaults to turbo on this install.
- Use smaller models for speed, larger for accuracy.
