It’s an interesting idea to patch the holes when absolutely no srt files are available.
But why not have an open repository where already present srt files could be shared by people.
We could call it libre-subs or something like that.
That’s still another thing that needs to be bought, installed, and fed with power.
My low power would likely melt trying to run Whisper.
You just need a GPU running in realtime along side your video playback to analyse what is being played instead of a single text file with timecodes.
Progress!
I was only aware of the m.2 variants.
Still, it’s a thing to be bought which I have not had to do for years for my media solution.
