The Meeting Summarizer project leverages the power of OpenAI's Whisper model for transcription and pyAudioAnalysis for speaker diarization to analyze video recordings, particularly useful in meeting settings. It transcribes spoken content into text and identifies distinct speakers, organizing the transcript accordingly for easier review and analysis.

• Transcription: Converts spoken language in videos into written text, supporting a wide range of languages as offered by the Whisper model.
• Speaker Diarization: Differentiates between speakers in the recording, assigning unique IDs to segments of speech by different individuals.
• Segment Organization: Compiles the transcription into a structured format by grouping consecutive speech segments by the same speaker. This organization allows for a clear, readable transcript that indicates not only what was said but also by whom, without interruptions for brief pauses or silence.

• Python 3.8+: Ensure Python is installed on your system. You can verify this by running python --version in your terminal.
• FFmpeg: This project requires FFmpeg for processing audio from video files. Install FFmpeg using sudo apt-get install ffmpeg on Ubuntu or choco install ffmpeg on Windows.

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/BertilBraun/Meeting-Summarizer

2. Navigate to the project directory:

   cd Meeting-Summarizer

3. Install required Python packages:

   pip install -r requirements.txt

1. Prepare your video file: Have the video you wish to analyze ready. Ensure clear audio for best results.

2. Run the script: Execute the main script via the terminal or command prompt:

   python main.py

3. Follow prompts: Input the path to your video file, the number of speakers present, and the language code (e.g., "en" for English) when prompted by the script.

The script processes the video to generate a transcript that organizes speech segments by speaker, facilitating a coherent read-through. The outcome is displayed in the terminal and also saved to transcript.txt within the project directory.

After processing, you'll have the opportunity to assign names to the identified speakers, replacing generic IDs with meaningful labels in the final transcript for enhanced clarity.
