UPDATE - v1.8 - 17/08/2022
- Fixed bug: language codes for Chinese Languages updated accordingly to Speech API. Changed to "cmn-Hans-CN" and "cmn-Hant-TW" instead of "zh / zh-TW").. The output was always mistakenly coming in Cantonese (yue-Hant-HK). Now they come properly in Traditional Chinese and Simplified Chinese. Thanks to "Specter Hi" for reporting!
- Added GUI language switch feature
- Updated link to funding campaign at GitHub Sponsors
Note for Linux Users:
If you use Gnome 40 or higher with Wayland you need to use the special version for that. (pyTranscriber-v1.7-linux-gnome40-wayland*.zip)
Also make sure you have qtwayland5 package installed on your system (for Ubuntu apt install qtwayland5)
Note for Mac users:
As the app is not downloaded from the AppStore, it may be necessary to allow it to run manually at
System Preferences > Security and Privacy
FOR macOS CATALINA AND ABOVE:
Open a Terminal and type the following command to add an exception allowing the app to run:
xattr -cr Downloads/pyTranscriber.app
MacOS Monterey
There has been bug reports of problems running the app on the latest MacOS version. If you also experience the same issues the workaround for now is to install Ubuntu on VirtualBox for Mac, install pyTranscriber and run it from there... this setup shouldn't take more than 30 minutes.
If you want a ready to go solution you can join the funding campaign with $10 one time and get a link with Virtualbox appliance ready to go with everything pre-installed.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
For users in mainland China or other places where Google is blocked
The app will show a failure to connect to the internet message... meaning Google Servers.
You need to either use a proxy service and set it up at pytranscriber settings > proxy or install a desktop VPN app like Windscribe to bypass the blockage and be able to use pyTranscriber.
对于中国大陆或其他谷歌被屏蔽的地方的用户
该应用程序将显示连接到互联网消息失败...意思是谷歌服务器。
您需要使用代理服务并在 pytranscriber 设置 > 代理中进行设置，或者安装桌面 VPN 应用程序（如 Windscribe）绕过阻塞并能够使用 pyTranscriber。
