How to get transcription in a text file

[brookesrook]

Maybe I'm missing the obvious, is there a way to export the transcription into a text file/log? Also are there other arguments that can be inserted to date/time stamp each entry?

If you look at transcribe_demo.py, you can see that we append each transcribed line to a list, and then print each line from the list to the terminal. If you want to write it out to a file instead, you will have to do something like:

with open('file.txt', 'w+') as f:
    f.write('\n'.join(transcription))

This simple project does not support timestamps, it's just an example for others to learn from. If you want timestamps you are going to have to try WhisperX or similar.

Thank you~ I'll give that a try.

You could additionally do a timestamp like implementation by measuring the time since the start of the script and at each interval it prints out the time diff since start of the script. It's kind of hacky doing it this way, but it's a possible direction you could go with this.
