This is the first non-beta release.
I have corrected some issues and added some new features and improvements.
You can download v0.3 from here: https://drive.switch.ch/index.php/s/EIVup04qkSHb54j?path=%2FnoScribe%20vers.%200.3

new:

  • Translations of the user interface into Spanish, French, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, Chinese. Thank you, mlynar-czyk, for this contribution! Be aware: These translations have been generated with a clever use of chatGPT. Please report any errors that you will find and make – if possible – a pull request with a better translation.
  • Added hyperlinks to the main window. You can now open the finished transcript directly by clicking on the filename in the log.
  • Improved speaker identification, especially in situations with quick changes (by reducing "max-len" in whisper to 30).
  • Installer now runs without admin rights. You should be able to install noScribe on a computer where you don’t have administrator privileges (i.e., because the machine is managed by the IT-department of your university). Thanks you, BabyFnord, for this suggestion!

fixes:

  • To solve the problem described in issue #2 (transcription failing with error 3221225794 or 3221225501), I have now included a version of whisper.cpp that supports older hardware (non AVX2). NoScribe selects automatically which version to use. Be aware though that using such old hardware will result in a very slow transcription.
  • Corrected UTF-8 encoding error that resulted in a failing transcription in some languages (i.e., Japanese, Hungarian). Thank you to the two people reporting this problem via e-mail!
  • fixed: Auto save was saving too often during transcription.
  • fixed: Play along function in Word sometimes not finding the beginning of the transcription
  • fixed: Funny mistake in readme ("sensible data" instead of "sensitive data"). Thanks TheOnlyWayUp!
