I setup the server to only transcribe two files at a time, so yeah someone could abuse it for sure with two big uploads and stick everyone else on the queue. But for me, even a 3 hour video translates with large model in about ~30 minutes s

I (used to) use simonsaysai.com to generate subtitles and they had the functionality to input specialized vocabulary, so I suppose it's possible in some sense but I don't know how it would work with Whisper, something to ask on th

Yeah, there is a websocket connection and when the transcription is done it will update the frontend with the links to .srt, .vtt and .txt file downloads

Thanks! Whisper is a lot of fun but it didn't take long before I wanted to build a frontend. And then I built something that I think came out super nice so why not share it with people. I used to pay $100/month for transcriptions

Maybe I will put in some mechanism to prevent that but for now I just want to see if people could find it useful. I also have the code open source and will write tutorials for people to put up their own instance as well

I am just paying for a somewhat expensive server and I love how it's really fast but also I have a lot of free GPU time so might as well let others use it too lol. It's an experiment to see if people will use it productively or if

They still removed my post as a dupe. I work so hard on making something cool for the internet and get 0 respect from the mods here.

Not particularly but it's just cool to let people know what's under the hood. Node.JS can power a lot of powerful APIs and is itself quite a powerful piece of software, I think it's cool to let people know it's a Node ap

Yup federation is planned. And JavaScript is the language of the web, JavaScript + Node together is something I really enjoy working with. And intensive things like video conversions is run closer to the metal than the Node app

Okay sweet, I hadn't known Show HN was a separate section in the frontend. That should help a lot, based on your suggestion and what I read on /showhn.html I made this post here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?i

The link directly to my Github repo received attention, but a post that is to the live instance has yet to receive any significant attention. The two things are separate, one is a source code that hypothetically does something, the other

The app is decoupled such that the frontend can run separately from the intensive processes. I have the app running on a free Heroku dyno right now and it's running great even serving up to 100 concurrent users.

If I read the rules and ctrl+f for repost I only find: 'Please don't delete and repost the same story. Deletion is for things that shouldn't have been submitted in the first place.' Which rule are you referencing?

Honestly it would help me if people just posted the link themselves if they found it interesting. Whenever I do it it's frowned upon for 'self promotion' even though people find it very interesting and useful. Maybe that'

I did that based on a suggestion before, and wrote up a pretty long blog entry about my motivation for the project and it got like zero pickup on HN. People really like to just see the real thing, here is the post for reference: https:

I'm a JavaScript guy and do most of my servers in Node, and was able to use a great repo called 'hackathon-starter' from Github for some basic functionality out of the gate, and I like their setup of a Node app.

It's a stopgap measure right now since I only have a couple other mods and can't guarantee someone can be around to monitor uploads. It can be turned off via a flag in the settings file.

It's actually a double entendre, eventually it will be federated via ActivityPub and able to index others instances' content, and that's the other and true meaning of the 'Node' component of the name.

Sorry, I've just been working a lot on the frontend lately and feel that the actual live instance now is about a 1.0 which is my motivation for the post. Hopefully that's OK I know there's a LOT of people who have still never
