Pro Video Editor: Transitions, Auto Captions and Text Themes for the Blender Vse

blenderustad in VSE


Do captions need an API key or subscription?

No. Captions run locally on your CPU with faster-whisper. Internet is only used once to download the speech tools and model.

Is my video uploaded anywhere?

No. Audio is processed on your computer. The only network use is the explicit model download.

Which Blender version do I need?

Blender 5.2.x. It was tested on Blender 5.2.1 LTS on Windows. Blender 5.3 and older versions are not supported in this release.

Does it work on Mac and Linux?

It is pure Python, but macOS and Linux have not been validated yet. Windows is the tested platform.

Can it caption songs?

Yes, there is a Singing / music mode, and Medium English works best for English songs. Music can still cause missed or invented lyrics, so review the transcript.

Can I export SRT subtitle files?

Not in this version. Captions are created as Blender text strips and are rendered into the MP4.

Why can't I add a transition between two clips?

The clips must be ordinary movies or single images, directly next to each other on the same track. Retimed, reversed or image-sequence clips are not supported.
