# Auto Subtitles
|
|
|
|
Generate subtitle files from a video's audio track using AI-powered speech recognition (faster-whisper). Supports auto-detection and 10 explicit languages.
|
|
|
|
## API Endpoint
|
|
|
|
`POST /api/v1/tools/video/auto-subtitles`
|
|
|
|
Accepts multipart form data with a video file and a JSON `settings` field. This is an async endpoint - it returns `202 Accepted` immediately and progress is streamed via SSE at `GET /api/v1/jobs/{jobId}/progress`.
|
|
|
|
## Parameters
|
|
|
|
| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|
|
|-----------|------|----------|---------|-------------|
|
|
| language | string | No | `"auto"` | Speech language: `auto`, `en`, `de`, `fr`, `es`, `zh`, `ja`, `ko`, `id`, `th`, `vi` |
|
|
| format | string | No | `"srt"` | Output subtitle format: `srt`, `vtt` |
|
|
|
|
## Example Request
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl -X POST http://localhost:1349/api/v1/tools/video/auto-subtitles \
|
|
-H "Authorization: Bearer si_your-api-key" \
|
|
-F "file=@clip.mp4" \
|
|
-F 'settings={"language": "en", "format": "srt"}'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Example Response
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"jobId": "a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890",
|
|
"async": true
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Notes
|
|
|
|
- This is an AI tool that requires the **transcription** feature bundle to be installed. If the bundle is not installed, the API returns `501 Feature Not Installed` with instructions to install it via the admin UI.
|
|
- The `auto` language option uses whisper's built-in language detection. Specifying the language explicitly improves accuracy and speed.
|
|
- SRT is the most widely supported subtitle format. VTT (WebVTT) is the standard for web video players.
|
|
- Progress updates are available via SSE at `GET /api/v1/jobs/{jobId}/progress` until the job completes.
