Thanks! Good info! I'm going to install Linux Mint in about two weeks and one of my goals was finding a speech-to-text system. I'm autistic with a few learning disabilities, including being slow at the keyboard. And, I compose better vocally, as opposed to using a keyboard.
I've been using Linux Mint for about seven years now. I'm always on the lookout for new and better ways to improve my computing experience, so I really appreciate your information on the best speech-to-text software for Linux.
Interesting. I wonder if there is a way to set it up to interoperate with Obsidian (My favorite note taking software). If I could get it to listen, and inject text on the fly, processing my many programming tutorials into usable notes would be grand. Are there audio ques for custom punctuation? Like if I wanted to add a dash before a sentence?
As far as I can see, and with only a limited testing, you can't cue it for specific punctuation. This is the only way it seems inferior to old staples like Dragon Dictate. It's not bad at all at getting the sentence structure, and marking it with sensible punctuation, but I wouldn't trust it to know the difference between a colon and a semi-colon. But it is extremely good, and well worth trying to see how it fits into your pattern of usage.
Ihave been looking for a Speech to text frontend like forever and nada, and today you appeared in my feed. I am going to try it now I hope it works. Subbed.
Hi! I recently switched from Windows to Linux Mint and I'm really enjoying the experience. The community is huge and supportive! I'm planning to merge two partitions and then move the /home directory to a new 60 GB partition. Do you have any video tutorials or recommendations on how to do this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I've had a play, and you can drag and drop .wav files and also play audio through your speakers, and it will convert both to text. So, it's a very nice piece of software.
Excellent! Thank you. I've been doing speech to text with Google Chrome & Docs. Speech Note looks to have a lot more control.
I just tried this. It's great.
I'm trying it now. I'm going to try the copy and paste function. It should be interesting to use this in my efforts.

Sound good. Make sure and play with the different install modules to find the best one that fits you.

Exactly the same situation here 🤝
There's a text-to-speech option too? Intriguing.
on Arch linux, it's under AUR as "dsnote"
Very interesting and informative. thank you.
You're welcome
Thanks for the tip. I am afraid however that after years of watching the actions of my fellow humans, I am running out of words to even say.?🤔
Thank you! I have reviewed many including this one, So now I will plug it in and give it a shot. Thanks again.
Useful video. Thanks.
Thanks. I’ll give it a try. 😊

Will try tomorrow!
Awesome!
That's typist! 👍 ⌨
Thank you, that sounds great and very helpful!
Thanks a lot for sharing!

Thanks. Hope it works for you
This is the good stuff. Don't play around, though: go for one of the big models (Whisper is good) and accept the delays. Hope it goes well for you.
Thank you very much 👍

I have not done one, but I could put something like that together in the future
That's great! Thanks 😊
@@Eric-xd2ye You're welcome
Sounds good 👍 😊thanks!
Nice! Can it also import audio files?
I believe it's text based. I think you'd have to play the audio into a mic and let it translate.

@@murraydawson8407 Thanks for the info
Yes. This is one of its best features. I think it prefers/only takes MP3 files, but it is well set up to do this.
Very useful 👍
