hoshi Posted December 29, 2025 at 11:09 AM Report Posted December 29, 2025 at 11:09 AM 望言OCR is an efficient and accurate subtitle extraction tool that can quickly extract hard‑coded subtitles from videos. see the official site:https://static.subocr.cn/ you can do both Automatic Analysis and Manual Setup for place the frame on designated position of sub and go. also you can choose to use third‑party OCR services by enter the corresponding API key and secret key. currently supports the following third‑party OCR interfaces: 百度 OCR, 百度高精 OCR, 腾讯云OCR, 腾讯高精OCR, 阿里云OCR. you can download from community(free) version from github and professional version from baidu webdisc. https://github.com/nhjydywd/SubtitleOCR https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1Xgq6BtEuo/ Quote
becky82 Posted January 1, 2026 at 12:09 AM Report Posted January 1, 2026 at 12:09 AM To answer the question in the title... Quote How are you guys OCR-ing our text nowadays? If I'm using OCR, it'll be via ChatGPT, Yandex, or Pleco's OCR (which came as part of a dictionary bundle I bought many years ago). But honestly, at my level, it's very seldom needed. As for... Quote if there are new ways or better ways or updated ways to make srt files out of hard coded subs I've tried "hard coded subs to soft coded subs" software, and it requires too much computer processing, so I don't use it. (Also, I can read the hard-coded subs, and for the exceptions, I just guess the pinyin using phonetic components or handwrite them into Pleco.) If I actually want to make subtitle files, I upload the audio file (downloaded with youtube-dl -x) to https://jianwai.youdao.com/ and it auto-generates subtitles in Chinese. But if I just want a transcript of what's said... I just put my iPhone in "voice input" mode, put it near a speaker, and play the audio aloud, and the iPhone automatically transcribes what is said. 1 Quote
