Faster-Whisper-XXL GUI

[chachi17v]

Hi everyone,
I’m fairly new to coding, but I love this model so I created a simple GUI that you can compile and drop into the same folder Faster-Whisper-XXL is. I hope you find it useful, and if so, perhaps it could be added to the original package.

import os
import sys
import subprocess
import tkinter as tk
from tkinter import filedialog, messagebox

class WhisperGUI(tk.Tk):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()
        self.title("Whisper Standalone GUI")
        self.resizable(False, False)

        # Variables
        self.exe_path   = tk.StringVar()
        self.video_path = tk.StringVar()
        self.model      = tk.StringVar()
        self.language   = tk.StringVar()
        self.output_dir = tk.StringVar()

        default_dir = os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(sys.argv[0]))
        self.exe_path.set(os.path.join(default_dir, "faster-whisper-xxl.exe"))
