Membrane Whisper Plugin

Hex.pmAPI DocsCircleCI

A Membrane plugin for producing transcripts from audio streams containing human speech, based on OpenAI's Whisper model.

It's a part of the Membrane Framework.

Installation

The package can be installed by adding membrane_whisper_plugin to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:

def deps do
  [
    {:membrane_whisper_plugin, "~> 0.1.0"}
  ]
end

Examples

For a demo streaming and transcribing a static .mp4, see examples/live_mp4_processing.exs:

$ elixir examples/live_mp4_processing.exs

You can also try it out yourself - see examples/live_mic_processing.exs which uses portaudio to stream your microphone's input directly to Whisper and prints the resulting transcript directly to console:

$ elixir examples/live_mic_processing.exs
