Thanks for the tutorial. However I'm not able to get it up and running get error saying "app cannot run on your computer. contact creator"! I'm running a ASOCK Z77 Extreme 4 MB with a i5 (3.4 GHz) CPU and 16GB RAM and running Windows 10 Pro. Also have a NVIIDIA GTX1060. Error message occurs even without using CUDA. Maybe my computer is just too old?? Anyway there is always Colab Whisper...at least so far.
I did a little more research and I think my computer, GPU and Window 10 Pro operating system should handle faster-Whisper-XXL I probably am missing something in the download/install but too brain dead to explore anymore tonight! Any other thoughts out there?
Good Morning! I think I may have messed up on the installation after installation I moved Faster-Whisper to my "C" drive may have lost something in the move. Am retrying the install. Will keep this saga alive until I get it or give up!
UPDATE:
Reinstalling Faster-Whisper-XXL and CUDA seemed to help...at least I didn't get the error message that the Program could not run on my computer; however, there seems to be some files missing; eg, Whisper reported that it could mot find the "models" file. I did a little more Google searching and found this ad:
https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/9nmms8xgx8vn?hl=en-US&gl=US . Decided to give it a try to save what little hair I have left! Once purchased the MS Store will download it and install it on your computur (~4GB). It looks promising it ran for 10-12 mins and produced a srt file similar to what WhisperColab produces. Excited to try varing some of the advanced setting to see what effect they might have.. It's kinda neat...it even has a GUI interface for software dummies like me!
