项目说明

由 README 自动翻译提炼

本地离线跑 Whisper 做音视频转写与翻译的桌面工具,兼顾命令行与实时麦克风

基于 OpenAI Whisper 的离线音频转写与翻译工具,在本机就能把语音转成文字并翻译,不用联网也不上传数据。

核心能力

  • 转写音视频文件及 YouTube 链接
  • 麦克风实时转写并提供演示窗口
  • 转写前做语音分离以提升嘈杂音频准确率
  • 支持说话人识别并导出 TXT、SRT、VTT
  • 提供 CLI、监听文件夹与插件系统

容易踩的坑

PyPI 安装需先装 ffmpeg 并使用 Python 3.12 环境;Windows 版未签名,安装时需选 More info -> Run anyway;Nvidia GPU 加速需额外安装对应 CUDA 版 torch 或在 Help -> About Buzz 中安装 CUDA Acceleration。
