## Installation

> **Upgrading?** Run `whisperjav-upgrade` (works on Windows, Linux, and macOS). For code-only updates: `whisperjav-upgrade --wheel-only`. See the [Upgrade Guide](docs/en/UPGRADE.md) for details.

### Which Installation Path Should I Follow?

| Your Situation | Go To |
|----------------|-------|
| **New user on Windows** wanting GUI | [Windows Standalone Installer](#windows-standalone-installer) |
| **Developer on Windows** | [Windows Source Install](#windows-source-install) |
| **macOS user** | [macOS (Apple Silicon)](#macos-apple-silicon) |
| **Linux user** | [Linux](#linux-ubuntu-debian-fedora-arch) |
| **Colab or Kaggle** | [Cloud Notebooks](#google-colab--kaggle) |
| **Developer or expert** wanting pip | [Expert Installation](#expert-installation) |

### Windows Source Install

For people who manage their own Python environments.

**Prerequisites:** Python 3.10-3.12, Git, FFmpeg in PATH.

```batch
git clone https://github.com/meizhong986/whisperjav.git
cd whisperjav

:: Full automated install (auto-detects GPU)
installer\install_windows.bat

:: Or with options:
installer\install_windows.bat --cpu-only        :: Force CPU
installer\install_windows.bat --cuda118         :: Force CUDA 11.8
installer\install_windows.bat --cuda128         :: Force CUDA 12.8
installer\install_windows.bat --local-llm       :: Include local LLM translation
```

The installer runs in 5 phases: PyTorch first (with GPU detection), then scientific stack, Whisper packages, audio/CLI tools, and optional extras. This order matters — PyTorch must be installed before anything that depends on it, or you end up with CPU-only wheels.

For the full walkthrough, see [docs/en/guides/installation_windows_python.md](docs/en/guides/installation_windows_python.md).

---

# Recommended: use the install script
chmod +x installer/install_linux.sh
./installer/install_linux.sh

---

### Expert Installation

For users comfortable with Python package management. Choose the components you need.

#### Modular Installation

WhisperJAV supports modular extras. Install only what you need:

```bash

---

# Install in editable mode with dev dependencies
pip install -e ".[dev]"

---

### System Requirements

| Requirement | Minimum | Recommended |
|-------------|---------|-------------|
| **OS** | Windows 10, macOS 11, Ubuntu 20.04 | Windows 11, macOS 14, Ubuntu 22.04 |
| **Python** | 3.10 | 3.11 |
| **RAM** | 8 GB | 16 GB |
| **Disk** | 8 GB | 15 GB (with models) |
| **GPU** | None (CPU works) | NVIDIA RTX 2060+ or Apple Silicon |

**GPU Support:**
- NVIDIA: CUDA 11.8 or 12.8 (Windows, Linux)
- Apple Silicon: MPS acceleration for Whisper (M1/M2/M3/M4/M5). Qwen pipeline is CPU-only on Mac for now.
- AMD ROCm: Experimental (Linux only)
- CPU fallback: Works on all platforms, 5-10x slower

**Processing Time Estimates (per hour of video):**

| Hardware | Time |
|----------|------|
| NVIDIA RTX GPU | 5-10 minutes |
| Apple Silicon | 8-15 minutes |
| CPU | 30-60 minutes |
