Language & Translation

These arguments control language selection and translation features.

Arguments

Flag	Description
--language	Source language of the audio content for improved transcription accuracy. Use language codes like 'en', 'es', 'fr', 'de', 'ja', etc.
--target_language	Target language for translation output when using --translate mode. Must be used in combination with --translate flag.
--translate	Automatically translate transcribed text to English using built-in translation capabilities. Works with both live microphone input and file processing.
--transcribe	Force transcription mode instead of real-time processing. Automatically enabled for file inputs, but can be explicitly set for microphone input.
