This script downloads audio files from a remote Linux server via SSH, converts them to WAV, generates English SRT subtitles using WhisperX, and uploads the subtitles back.

• Recursively finds and downloads audio (aac, mp3, ogg, wav, etc.) from a server directory
• Converts to .wav if needed (using ffmpeg)
• Runs WhisperX to generate .srt subtitles with fine granularity
• Uploads generated subtitles back to the server via SFTP

• Python 3.7+
• ffmpeg in your PATH
• WhisperX
• Python: pip install paramiko tqdm

1. Edit the script to set:
   • SERVER_IP, SERVER_PORT, USERNAME, PRIVATE_KEY_PATH
2. Run:

   python generate_subs_from_server.py /remote/path/to/search

   Replace /remote/path/to/search with the actual remote directory.

• Script uses your SSH private key (default: ~/.ssh/id_rsa)
• Subtitles are generated per audio file and uploaded to the same directory on the server
• Temporary files are cleaned up automatically

Simple, fast, and automated subtitle workflow for your server audio files!
