OpenAI Speech Recognition API for Transcription

This method uses OpenAI's online speech recognition API to convert audio into subtitles. You need a paid OpenAI account. Fill in the relevant information in the menu under Speech Recognition Settings -> OpenAI Speech Recognition API, and then use the OpenAI Recognition API option on the main interface.

Automatic Language Detection

Starting from version v2.59, a new "Auto Detect" option has been added to the Original Language dropdown. If you are unsure of the language or if the language is not among the 24 supported languages, you can select the "Auto Detect" option. The program will then attempt to automatically identify the spoken language.

However, if possible, it is best to avoid using this option, especially if there is no clear speech within the first 30 seconds of the video. This is because the automatic detection works by analyzing the first 30-second audio clip to determine the language for the entire video.

Another important note: Some languages with similar pronunciation but different writing systems may not be accurately identified and could be recognized as either one. For example, a Chinese video might randomly be recognized as either Simplified or Traditional Chinese.
