Hey arsus5478

There are instructions to install with wget on the git page as you mention and you seem to have folowed that guide, but the easiest way is to use APT.

For debian I would add the PPA repo:

There are clear instruction on the git page to install from apt.

About half way down the page you will see APT.

APT

You can download and install yt-dlp for recent Ubuntu and other related Debian-based distributions by adding this PPA

Add ppa repo to apt

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tomtomtom/yt-dlp

Update package list

sudo apt update

Install yt-dlp

sudo apt install yt-dlp

Your system’s package manager will now automatically download the correct dependencies and keep the package updated with the rest of your system whenever you update:

Done

this is a good introduction to adding an external PPA repo to apt and getting to know debian

I knew someone more technically gifted in the community would have a good answer as to why this happened.

I did use the larger and medium models with Open whisper and Fast whisper.

I did not consider the lower termperature settings

Thank you

Thank you Domi

I have used Open-whisper and Fast-whisper to do subtitles.

Open whisper is easy to set up and install locally. I tried various models.

Recently I tried to do the French series En Therapie (In Therapy) which has 35 short episodes.

https://www.arte.tv/fr/videos/RC-020578/en-therapie/

Each episode is only 20 minutes long, so I thought that open whisper would be great to translate from French to English.

However. It failed dismally. Constant, regurgitation of repeated sentences. Throughout entire episodes open whisper used “him” instead of “her” and many other instances of misspelling. It would fail if there was music playing in the background.

I extracted the audio from the videos into small .wav format and .mp3 format but both failed.

I spent over a week trying to create suitable subtitles to no avail.
