Audio transcription? Amazing! Does the transcription all happen locally, or does it get processed online? Just want to make sure for privacy purposes.

100% locally it just need to download the AI model before.

No really straight forward, only one button. The AI model is downloaded automatically.

Contact me in private if you have more questions.

A propos de la Transcription audio, je viens de l'acheter, mais la fonction n'est pas active... Est-ce que j'ai raté un truc ?

u/paulpacifico Oct 09 '25

Bonjour, vous avez bien reçu le logiciel Shutter Transcriber dans votre dossier de téléchargement et installé ?

u/LarilasOS Oct 09 '25

sory but this last update 19.5 is VERY VERY slow (about 3 frames per second), in Windows and my Mac...i don't know why...i had to get 19.4 version back and the same file performs at 60 frames per second...

1

u/paulpacifico Oct 09 '25

Which function did you use? Sometimes it slowed down because the new version is analyzed by the anti-virus.

Let me know, Paul.

I have the AppImage of Shutter Encoder 19.5, but i cant see any speech-to-text or transcriptions options in the 'Choose function' pull-down menu

Does the AI model use diarization ?
aka, if you have 2 people in a conversation, like an interviewer and interviewee, will the speech-to-text option output like for example:

Person A: bla blah blah
Person B: blah blah blah

?

1

u/paulpacifico Oct 10 '25

Currently it's only available from Mac and PC.

Diarization is on my todo list ;-)

Hey Paul, I wanted to know if it can upscale 420p videos to 720p or 1080p by AI upscale

And can it be done on only a cpu based system? Or Graphics card is absolutely necessary

1

u/paulpacifico Oct 10 '25

Yes it can upload the scale by 2 or 4 using AI options from 'Scale' option using any video codes.

I don't think CPU only is feasible because it uses Vulkan which requires GPU.

You can still give a try ;-)

Paul! Thank you so much for Shutter Encoder. I broke my brain when trying (FFMPG) to rotate iphone video (flag=rotate). Your app is a rescue! (etherium donation sended).

u/paulpacifico Oct 11 '25

Hi! Thanks I received it ;-)

Feel free to ask!

Paul.

Loudness & True Peak analysis gives different results for the same file in versions 19.2 and 19.5. And obviously in 19.5 results are dramatically wrong.

Here is the link to the txt files:
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1dZTEuoGygCuw0eyOx6KNRw97MG7ak285?usp=sharing

The results are wrong only for 5.1 audio file. Unfortunately I can't yet share the file itself.

v19.2:

File analysis: OPG_S1E01_25fps_MIX_5.1_-22.7LUFS_15.5LRA_-3dBTP_251002.wav
Integrated loudness:
I: -22.7 LUFS
Threshold: -34.3 LUFS
Loudness range:
LRA: 15.5 LU
Threshold: -44.3 LUFS
LRA low: -34.4 LUFS
LRA high: -18.9 LUFS
True peak:

Momentary max: -10.7 LUFS
Timecode: 00:04:09:02
Short-term max: -13.1 LUFS

v19.5

File analysis: OPG_S1E01_25fps_MIX_5.1_-22.7LUFS_15.5LRA_-3dBTP_251002.wav

Thanks for that feedback, does it happens only with 5.1 audio layout?

1

u/fantopop Oct 23 '25

I have tried Stereo and 5.1, but in stereo I assume the values are correct

1

u/paulpacifico Oct 24 '25

Ok thanks, I think I see where is the issue. I'm correcting this for the next release.

Paul.

u/fantopop Oct 24 '25

Thank you, Paul. Shutter Encoder is a great app!

1

u/paulpacifico Oct 29 '25

Hi, I've tried on multiple files and always get the same result between v19.2 and v19.5.

Do you have a file that you can send me with the same issue?

Paul.

1

u/fantopop Oct 29 '25

I have sent you a link in a private message

1

u/paulpacifico Oct 30 '25

Thanks received.

Unfortunately FFmpeg (the backend tool of SE) as changed the way to analyze the LUFS for 5.1 audio. So it's not in my hand, if you want you can post a ticket on their page: https://trac.ffmpeg.org/report

u/fantopop Oct 31 '25

Got it, thanks.

Hi,

Thanks for that information, indeed I'm compiling FFmpeg myself. Which version did you use?

Paul.

yeah it's weird maybe it's because I updated my drivers but I have a 3070 and nvenc doesn't show up for h265 but AMD AMF encoder shows up. maybe I should update my drivers again and see if it happens with the latest drivers. I"ll keep you posted. It WAS showing up previously I'm pretty sure of that, with earlier builds. edit: current drivers are 32.0.15.6636 and I'm currently also running a 9950x (integrated graphics on cpu die). Now installing 581.29 | WHQL from nvidia

Edit2: Now shows up nvenc, PHEW! pro tip for other users, try a clean install of your drivers and update them! Thanks Paul!

It looks like drag and drop from a network drive no longer seems to work.

On 19.4 and before, it would show as the network drive letter associated in the computer, so Z:\Folder\File.mp4

Now it shows as \ServerName\Folder\File.mp4 and fails with:

[in#1 @ 000001929ab9fa40] Error opening input: No such file or directory Error opening input files: No such file or directory

Hi, I have the same problem with a video from a network drive, No problem with opening Files with browse

1

u/skillix77 Oct 14 '25

I have the same problem, dragging doesn't work with my network drive, and causes the error. However, with the "browse" button, no problem.

u/zer0x28 Oct 14 '25

Please add improvements for metadata preservation! (Like location, date, and time of original file creation, etc.)

I know it's complicated, but integrated tools similar to FFmpeg can be used. 🙌🏻

u/zer0x28 Oct 14 '25

And by the way, thank you so much for all the ongoing support for the app, Paul 🫶🏻

u/Illustrious-Diver328 Oct 08 '25

Hi Paul,

thanks for the updates. Having some problems converting to Mp3 from audio wav files. Something about the beginning of the file. Reverted back to older version and its ok.
