The popular open-source VLC video player was demonstrated on the floor of CES 2025 with automatic AI subtitling and translation, generated locally and offline in real time. Parent organization VideoLAN shared a video on Tuesday in which president Jean-Baptiste Kempf shows off the new feature, which uses open-source AI models to generate subtitles for videos in several languages.
I unfortunately don’t know the specific names of the models, I will comment additionally if I will not forget to ask people who spun up the models themselves.
The difference might be that live vs recorded stuff, I don’t know.
