Deepgram Python Captions

Discord PyPI version

This package is the Python implementation of Deepgram's WebVTT and SRT formatting. Given a transcription, this package can return a valid string to store as WebVTT or SRT caption files.

The package is not dependent on Deepgram, but it is expected that you will provide a JSON response from a transcription request from either Deepgram or one of the other supported speech-to-text APIs.

Installation

pip install deepgram-captions

How it works

The converter takes in a JSON object response (see examples in the ./test folder.) Depending on which API you use, the converter will turn that into a shape that can be handled by the webvtt and srt scripts.

You provide the JSON object; then select the converter needed such as DeepgramConverter, WhisperTimestampedConverter, AssemblyAIConverter and so on. (If the API you want to use is not supported, please reach out to [email protected] and we will do our best to add it.)

WebVTT from Deepgram Transcriptions

from deepgram_captions import DeepgramConverter, webvtt

transcription = DeepgramConverter(dg_response)
captions = webvtt(transcription)

SRT from Deepgram Transcriptions

from deepgram_captions import DeepgramConverter, srt

transcription = DeepgramConverter(dg_response)
captions = srt(transcription)

Line length

Add an optional integer parameter to set the line length of the caption.

line_length = 10

deepgram = DeepgramConverter(dg_speakers)
captions = webvtt(deepgram, line_length)

Other Converters

Whisper

Open AI's Whisper (through their API) does not provide timestamps, so a JSON response directly from OpenAI cannot be used with this package. However, there are a couple other options you can try:

Deepgram's Whisper Cloud

Use Deepgram's fully hosted Whisper Cloud, which gives you Whisper transcriptions along with the features that come with Deepgram's API such as timestamps. Use model=whisper when you make your request to Deepgram. Then use the DeepgramConverter to create the captions.

from deepgram_captions import DeepgramConverter, srt

transcription = DeepgramConverter(whisper_response)
captions = srt(transcription)

Whisper Timestamped

Whisper Timestamped adds word-level timestamps to OpenAI's Whisper speech-to-text transcriptions. Word-level timestamps are required for this package to create captions, which is why we have created the captions converter for Whisper Timestamped (and not OpenAI's Whisper).

from deepgram_captions import WhisperTimestampedConverter, webvtt

transcription = WhisperTimestampedConverter(whisper_response)
captions = webvtt(transcription)

Assembly AI

AssemblyAI is another popular speech-to-text API.

from deepgram_captions import AssemblyAIConverter, webvtt

transcription = AssemblyAIConverter(assembly_response)
captions = webvtt(transcription)

Output

Output WebVTT

When transcribing https://dpgr.am/spacewalk.wav, and running it through our library, this is the WebVTT output.

from deepgram_captions.converters import DeepgramConverter
from deepgram_captions.webvtt import webvtt

transcription = DeepgramConverter(dg_response)
captions = webvtt(transcription)
print(captions)

This is the result:

WEBVTT

Yeah. As as much as, it's worth celebrating,

00:00:04.400 --> 00:00:05.779
the first, spacewalk,

00:00:06.319 --> 00:00:07.859
with an all female team,

00:00:08.475 --> 00:00:10.715
I think many of us are looking forward

00:00:10.715 --> 00:00:13.215
to it just being normal and

00:00:13.835 --> 00:00:16.480
I think if it signifies anything, It is

00:00:16.779 --> 00:00:18.700
to honor the the women who came before

00:00:18.700 --> 00:00:21.680
us who, were skilled and qualified,

00:00:22.300 --> 00:00:24.779
and didn't get the same opportunities that we

00:00:24.779 --> 00:00:25.439
have today.

Output SRT

When transcribing https://dpgr.am/spacewalk.wav, and running it through our library, this is the SRT output.

from deepgram_captions import DeepgramConverter, srt

transcription = DeepgramConverter(dg_response)
captions = srt(transcription)
print(captions)

This is the result:

00:00:14,235 --> 00:00:17,340
if it signifies anything, It is to honor

the the women who came before us who,
