I know there are various tools that are supposed to make this easy, but I couldn't find anything that did everything I wanted, so I made this today for fun. The web-based offerings all take forever and seem flaky, and you need to process one video at a time, with no control over the transcription settings. In contrast, my script lets you convert a whole playlist in bulk with full control over everything. It's truly easy to use-- you can clone the repo, install to a venv, and be generating a folder full of high quality transcript text files in under 5 minutes. All you need to do is supply the…

It's been a game-changer for my studies! To make it even faster, I created a Chrome…

Hi HN, I built this little application for setting up RAG on Youtube video transcripts. I haven't seen a lot of RAG for multimodal use-cases so I thought this was interesting. It uses YoutubeDL to get transcripts and Vectara to set up the RAG system. It's multilingual so other languages besides english work as well. The answer produced by the LLM has references with timestamps to where its deriving information from from within the video. Right now the interface is a clunky terminal but I'm planning on adding a UI or maybe a voice I/O interface to the app. Full disclosure: I work at…
