<h2 id="description">Description</h2>
<p>AI-based transcription tool for converting spoken audio within video files into text using configurable speech-to-text models.</p>
<h2 id="purpose">Purpose</h2>
<p><code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">transraibe</code> provides automated transcription capabilities inside the videobeaux workflow.<br />
It enables creators to generate subtitles, caption files, analysis transcripts, or searchable text from any video containing dialogue or narration.<br />
The tool is optimized for quick turnaround and supports multiple STT (speech-to-text) model options.</p>
<h2 id="how-it-works">How It Works</h2>
<ol>
<li><strong>Model Selection</strong><br />
You choose the speech-to-text engine via <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">--stt_model</code>.</li>
<li><strong>Audio Extraction</strong><br />
The program extracts the audio track from the input video.</li>
<li><strong>Transcription Stage</strong><br />
The extracted audio is processed using the selected model, producing text output.</li>
<li><strong>Encoding &amp; Output</strong><br />
The final transcription is embedded or exported depending on the videobeaux pipelines you pair with it (captburn, metadata storage, etc.).</li>
</ol>

<div class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge"><div class="highlight"><pre class="highlight"><code>videobeaux -P transraibe \
-i input.mp4 \
-o output.mp4 \
--stt_model VALUE
</code></pre></div></div>
<h2 id="arguments">Arguments</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>stt_model</strong> — Speech-to-text model used for transcription (e.g., whisper-small, whisper-medium, whisper-large, or any model supported by your environment).</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="real-world-example">Real World Example</h2>
<div class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge"><div class="highlight"><pre class="highlight"><code>videobeaux -P transraibe \
-i myvideo.mp4 \
-o transraibe_styled.mp4 \
--stt_model whisper-medium
</code></pre></div></div>
<h2 id="technical-notes">Technical Notes</h2>
<ul>
<li>The accuracy of transcription depends heavily on the <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">stt_model</code> chosen.</li>
<li>Larger models produce better understanding of accents, noisy audio, and complex phrasing, but require more resources.</li>
<li>The input audio is automatically normalized and extracted before processing.</li>
<li>Output format compatibility (SRT, VTT, raw text) may depend on additional videobeaux tooling layered on top of transraibe.</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="recommended-usage">Recommended Usage</h2>
<ul>
<li>Generating transcript files for interviews, podcasts, and voice-driven content.</li>
<li>Preparing subtitle text for later burning (via captburn).</li>
<li>Producing searchable metadata for archival or indexing systems.</li>
<li>Replacing manual transcription workflows in post-production.</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="quality-tips">Quality Tips</h2>
<ul>
<li>Use higher-tier models (e.g., whisper-large) for best accuracy on challenging audio.</li>
<li>For clean studio audio, smaller models are often sufficient and much faster.</li>
<li>If the transcription seems off, pre-clean audio (denoise, normalize) before running transraibe.</li>
<li>Consider pairing with captburn to immediately generate styled subtitles.</li>
