transcribe_batch
Transcribe audio and video files in a folder one by one, previewing each transcript before saving as .txt. Skips files with existing transcripts.
Instructions
Transcribe multiple audio/video files in a folder interactively, one file at a time. Shows a preview of each transcript and waits for confirmation before continuing. Saves each transcript as a .txt file next to its source. Files already transcribed (with matching .txt) are shown as done and skipped. Supported formats: mp3, wav, mp4, mkv, avi, mov, webm, m4a, flac, ogg. NOTE: For large unattended batch jobs, use whisper-cli.exe directly from the command line — see TROUBLESHOOTING.md for the command syntax.
