Major update to the open‑source Podcast Transcriber: 5‑language translation is now live! 🚀

by

I’ve just shipped a big upgrade: on top of high‑quality local transcription and AI summaries, the project now supports one‑click translation into five languages: Chinese (zh), English (en), French (fr), Spanish (es), Japanese (ja)

✅ Smart trigger: Auto‑detects the audio language; when it differs from the chosen summary language, a “Download Translation” option appears.

✅ High‑fidelity text: Local Faster‑Whisper transcription + GPT‑powered cleanup for structure and readability.

✅ Clear UX: Real‑time progress (SSE), full podcast title display, lightweight download buttons (Transcript / Summary / Translation).

✅ Consistent filenames: Cleaner, shorter, archive‑friendly names.

Perfect for:

🧑‍🎓 Learners: Cross‑language note‑taking and study

✍️ Creators/Media: Multilingual publishing and content reuse

🧐 Research & Teams: Archiving, knowledge bases, searchable text

I’d love your feedback and contributions!
