Ability to fetch transcripts from Apple Podcasts #91

Closed

Description

@Tanzeel159

Apple Podcasts recently released support for transcripts in Podcasts . It would be great if we can fetch that from the API .

Proposed Workflow :

  1. Give an option (toggle) to fetch transcripts
  2. This can be used to get summary of a podcast episode if needed with other Quickadd LLM models

    Hi @Tanzeel159, thank you for suggesting this!

    I'd love to have this feature, but can't find any API from iTunes that lets me grab the transcriptions.

    A while back I started to implement this feature on a branch, but it would cost a lot to transcribe the episodes. Would love to query some repository that just exposes it.

    Oh okay so they haven't implement it yet. I will keep track and share if something is useful . Thanks for the effort though for trying to implement it yourself .

    For info: on IPhone Apple podcast app, I tried to copy the full transcript but when paste it somewhere is just taking the beginning of the copied text

    Added transcription feature in #101 via OpenAI's Whisper

    I've been using it all day! Works super well. LMK if you find it useful as well, or if you have any ideas/suggestions. Closing this for now :) Just open a new issue if you have an idea / dm me.

    @chhoumann is giving me [Error transcribing chunk 0] [Error transcribing chunk 1] [Error transcribing chunk 2] although I put an API key

    @zhampu please check the developer console for more information. You can access it with Ctrl+Shift+i, or Cmd+Shift+i if you are on Mac. It should display the error messages there.

    Did you add billing for the OpenAI account and project?

    BIlling is OK

    plugin:podnotes:10235 POST https://api.openai.com/v1/audio/transcriptions 429 (Too Many Requests)

    The error 429 means "Too many requests," so it sounds like you've reached a rate limit for how much you can send to the OpenAI API. Waiting for a few moments resolves the issue.

    Screenshot 2024-08-22 at 19 27 41 When I click on the command to transcribe a podcast, sometimes it takes the episode title from the one im listening but transcribe the previous one I transcribed

    any way to fix this?
