Live Caption Player
100% offline, real-time AI subtitles for VLC & MPV
Live Caption Player generates real-time, accurate AI subtitles for local videos played in VLC and MPV. Powered by local speech-to-text models running directly on your CPU, it guarantees 100% data privacy with zero cloud processing or expensive subscription APIs. Perfect for confidential lectures, media playback, and offline accessibility.
Hi Product Hunt! 👋
I built Live Caption Player because most live transcription tools force you to upload private audio to cloud servers and pay recurring API subscriptions.
I wanted a completely private, self-contained solution for desktop video players.
Key Features:
100% Local Processing: Runs Vosk offline acoustic models directly on your CPU.
Zero Data Leaks: No cloud processing, third-party APIs, or external servers.
Native Player Sync: Syncs live overlay subtitles directly with VLC and MPV playback timestamps.
It's available now for Windows with standalone desktop installers and Microsoft Store builds. I'd love to hear your feedback and answer any questions!
