I don't understand what the issue is. You don't know how to type the different diacritical marks? Or the textbox isn't accepting them? (Which seems like it would be a browser issue, not an issue with the site.)
I think that the commentor meant accents as in regional dialects.

Re: OTranscribe: A free and open tool for transcribing audio interviews
#92I needed to do this this week (transcribe an interview with multiple speakers) and used https://github.com/MahmoudAshraf97/whisper-diarization Worked excellent. It generates both a file that just contains a line per uninterrupted speaker speech prefixed with the speaker number, as well as a file with timestamps which I believe would be used as subtitles.

If it were ephemeral? Would that change this? Say recording the meeting locally a 5 minute frame then updating a meeting summary?
Do you mean ephemeral, or are you actually wondering about something implanted under the skin? I'd think/hope if it goes under the skin, it ends up in "hearing aid" territory. I'm less sure about if it doesn't persist.

I helped coding oTranscribe+ [0], which does something similar to what you are asking for. Using ElectronJS and the current, at that moment, version of oTranscribe, there is this desktop application. It also exists as web version and PWA [1]. Language models were those from BSC (Barcelona Supercomputing Center) at the time. The transcription is done via WASM, using Vosk [2] as base. I hope it fits. [0] https://github…
Is there a way to get it to punctuate? Or does it only jot down words?
Re: OTranscribe: A free and open tool for transcribing audio interviews
#95Are there any open-source or paid apps/shareware/freeware that can: - Transcribe word-by-word in real time as audio is recorded - Work entirely locally - Use relatively recent open-source local models? I've been using otter.ai for real-time meeting transcriptions - letting me multitask and instantly catch up if I'm asked a question by skimming the most recent few seconds worth of the transcript - but it's far from pe…
I wish they had Speaker Diarization, but they are waiting for upstream Whisper to add it: https://github.com/argmaxinc/WhisperKit/issues/31

It does not punctuate. It just transcribes what is in an audio stream.

I have had very good results using Spectropic [1], a hosted Whisper Diarization API service as a platform. I found it cheap and way easier and faster than setting up and using whisper-diarization on my M1. Audiogest [2] is a web service built upon Spectropic, I have not yet used it. disclaimer : I am not affiliated in any way, just a happy customer! I had some nice mail exchanges after bug reports with the (I believe…
Thanks for the shout-out and kind words! Thomas here, maker of Spectropic and Audiogest. I am indeed focused on building a simple and reliable Whisper + diarization API. Also working on providing fine-tuned versions of Whisper of non-English languages through the API. Feel free to reach out to me if anyone is interested in this!
Re: OTranscribe: A free and open tool for transcribing audio interviews
#98I started making an open source macOS app to do this with whisper and potentially pyannote. It is functional but a bit slow. I think using whisper directly instead of swift bindings will help a lot. Really interested in adding diarisation but having a lot of trouble converting Pyannote to CoreML. Pyannote runs so slowly with torch on CPU. Haven’t gotten around putting my latest work for that on GitHub yet. Happy to a…

Punctuating is enough of the hard work of generating a transcript that it's not very useful to me without this, unfortunately. What use cases are you planning for where the words themselves are the desired output?

Hi! Any plans to support streaming transcription with diarization?
