  • 4 out of 5 stars
    I've only given it 4 stars because: I installed Buzz to a second drive D:\Buzz. All the language models are downloading to my boot drive, "C:\Users\pcspeak\AppData\Local\Buzz\Buzz\Cache\models" I would have liked them to download to my Buzz install folder. So I moved the models folder to "D:\Buzz\models", and made a directory junction. mklink /J "C:\Users\pcspeak\AppData\Local\Buzz\Buzz\Cache\models" "D:\Buzz\models". I also moved "C:\Program Files (x86)\Buzz" to "D:\Buzz, and made another directory junction. mklink /J "C:\Program Files (x86)\Buzz" "D:\Buzz" This has allowed me to test a number of models, whilst NOT including them in my nightly system backup. Perhaps where to download the models to could be offered as a choice when the default Buzz install folder is NOT selected. Other than that it's excellent.

    Flawless, one-click install of the update to 1.4.5 on Win 11 desktop. Excellent freeware for transcription, translation, and subtitle generation. Many thanks to Chidi for continuing to refine this project!πŸ™
