Project Summary

This project provides an automated captioning solution for Final Cut Pro (FCP) users, leveraging OpenAI's Whisper model for accurate, multilingual transcription. It aims to streamline the video editing workflow by generating captions directly within FCP or as downloadable SRT files for other NLEs.

How It Works

The tool integrates OpenAI's Whisper model to transcribe audio from video projects. It processes video files, generates transcriptions, and then creates FCPXML files that can be directly imported into Final Cut Pro for seamless caption integration. It also supports exporting SRT files for compatibility with other popular video editing software.
