  1. extract audio content from video
./ffmpeg  -i /home/weiguo/kantv-record-MP4-H264-20240308-142616.mp4 -ac 2 -ar 16000 kantv-record-MP4-H264-20240308-142616.wav
  1. generate srt subtitle file by powerful whisper.cpp
./main  -m /home/weiguo/whisper.cpp/models/ggml-base.bin  -f ./kantv-record-MP4-H264-20240308-142616.wav -osrt

cp kantv-record-MP4-H264-20240308-142616.wav.srt 1.srt
  1. add subtitle to video by poweful FFmpeg
./ffmpeg  -i /home/weiguo/kantv-record-MP4-H264-20240308-142616.mp4 -vf "subtitles=1.srt:force_style='Fontname=simhei,Fontsize=25,PrimaryColour=&HFF00,Alignment=2,MarginV=70'" output-srt.mp4

5.BTW, the FFmpeg and the main(a command tool in whisper.cpp) here are both generated from scratch source code

follow the steps in toplevel README.md and generate FFmpeg & main from source code:

 . build/envsetup.sh
 lunch 2
 ./build-all linux

have fun with the great FFmpeg and the great whisper.cpp
