Below is an enhanced, comprehensive prompt that not only covers all the previous aspects (transcription, segmentation, NER, image acquisition, resizing, video assembly, parallel processing, and error handling) but now also integrates LangChain to improve the LLM‐driven image prompt generation. This addition refines your image generation step by producing more descriptive, context-aware prompts from the NER output. The following blueprint details every key concept and provides complete code examples.
Prompt Title
Build a Production-Ready Audio-to-Video Converter with Whisper, Stable Diffusion, LangChain, and Gradio
Overview & Key Concepts
This project converts an audio file (up to 50 minutes) into a dynamic video with synchronized images and audio. The core components are:
- User Interface & Input:
Use Gradio to build an intuitive interface for uploading audio, selecting video format (9:16, 16:9, or 1:1), and choosing an image acquisition method (scraper or generator). - Audio Transcription & Segmentation:
Leverage Hugging Face’s Whisper to transcribe the audio. Then, segment the audio into fixed time windows (e.g., 5 seconds each) so that each segment corresponds to one image. - Content Extraction (NER):
Process each segment with a Named Entity Recognition (NER) pipeline to extract key concepts that will drive image selection. - Enhanced Prompt Generation with LangChain:
Use LangChain to refine the raw NER output. An LLM chain takes the extracted entities and outputs a detailed, vivid prompt tailored for the Stable Diffusion model. - Image Acquisition:
Two methods are provided:- Image Scraper: Use Selenium and BeautifulSoup to scrape images from online sources.
- Image Generator: Use Stable Diffusion (with the enhanced LangChain prompt) to generate images.
- Parallel Processing & Robust Error Handling:
Employ Python’s ThreadPoolExecutor to process image acquisition concurrently—essential for long audio files needing many images (each displayed for less than 6 seconds). Each processing step has robust error handling and fallback mechanisms. - Video Assembly & Synchronization:
Use MoviePy to combine images (with smooth transitions) and overlay the full audio track, ensuring proper synchronization. - Scalability & Deployment:
Optimize performance for lengthy audio inputs and deploy on Hugging Face Spaces with GPU support (for image generation) and proper Selenium configuration.
Detailed Workflow & Code Examples
1. Gradio Interface for User Input
Create an interface that accepts the audio file and lets users choose their desired options.
Key Concepts: Clear input validation, progress feedback, and error display.
pythonCopyEditimport gradio as gr
def process_audio_to_video(audio_file, video_format, image_method):
try:
# Step 1: Transcribe audio with Whisper.
transcription = transcribe_audio(audio_file)
# Step 2: Segment audio and transcription (each segment is 5 seconds).
segments, total_duration = segment_audio_and_transcription(transcription, audio_file, segment_duration=5)
# Step 3: Process each segment concurrently to acquire images.
from concurrent.futures import ThreadPoolExecutor, as_completed
image_segments = []
with ThreadPoolExecutor(max_workers=8) as executor:
future_to_seg = {
executor.submit(process_segment, seg, video_format, image_method): seg
for seg in segments
}
for future in as_completed(future_to_seg):
try:
result = future.result()
if result:
image_segments.append(result)
else:
# Fallback: use a default image if processing fails.
default_img = resize_image_to_format("default.jpg", get_resolution(video_format))
seg = future_to_seg[future]
image_segments.append((default_img, seg["start"], seg["end"]))
except Exception as e:
print(f"Segment error: {e}")
seg = future_to_seg[future]
default_img = resize_image_to_format("default.jpg", get_resolution(video_format))
image_segments.append((default_img, seg["start"], seg["end"]))
# Step 4: Assemble the video with synchronized segments.
final_video_path = create_video_with_segments(image_segments, audio_file, video_format)
return final_video_path
except Exception as e:
return f"Error in processing audio-to-video: {e}"
# Define Gradio interface components.
audio_input = gr.Audio(source="upload", type="filepath", label="Upload Audio (Max 50 min)")
video_format_input = gr.Radio(choices=["9:16", "16:9", "1:1"], label="Select Video Format")
image_method_input = gr.Radio(choices=["Image Scraper", "Image Generator"], label="Select Image Acquisition Method")
video_output = gr.Video(label="Generated Video")

"with advanced error handling, parallel processing, and enhanced LLM prompt generation using LangChain.")
)
if __name__ == "__main__":
iface.launch()
2. Audio Transcription with Whisper
Transcribe the audio using Hugging Face’s Whisper with robust error handling.
Key Concept: Accurate transcription for downstream tasks.
pythonCopyEditfrom transformers import pipeline
# Initialize the Whisper ASR pipeline.
whisper_asr = pipeline("automatic-speech-recognition", model="openai/whisper-small")
def transcribe_audio(audio_file_path):
"""
Transcribe the uploaded audio file using Whisper.
"""
try:
transcription = whisper_asr(audio_file_path)["text"]
print("Transcription completed.")
return transcription
except Exception as e:
raise RuntimeError(f"Transcription failed: {e}")
3. Audio Segmentation for Synchronization
Segment the audio (and corresponding transcription) into fixed time windows (e.g., 5 seconds each).
Key Concept: Precise synchronization of audio with image segments.

def segment_audio_and_transcription(transcription, audio_file_path, segment_duration=5):
"""
Segment the audio into fixed windows and assign transcription.
Returns a list of segments with start/end times and associated text.

audio_clip = AudioFileClip(audio_file_path)
total_duration = audio_clip.duration # seconds
num_segments = int(total_duration // segment_duration)
segments = []
for i in range(num_segments):
start = i * segment_duration
end = (i + 1) * segment_duration
# In a full implementation, assign parts of the transcription based on timestamps.
segments.append({
"start": start,
"end": end,
"text": transcription # Simplified: same text for every segment.
})
print(f"Segmented audio into {len(segments)} segments.")
return segments, total_duration
except Exception as e:
raise RuntimeError(f"Audio segmentation failed: {e}")
4. Named Entity Recognition (NER) for Content Extraction

return []
5. Enhanced Prompt Generation with LangChain
Integrate LangChain to refine raw NER outputs into detailed image prompts for Stable Diffusion.
Key Concepts:

pythonCopyEditfrom langchain import PromptTemplate, LLMChain
from langchain.llms import OpenAI
# Define a prompt template for generating image prompts.
prompt_template_str = """
You are an expert image prompt engineer. Given the following entities extracted from an audio segment:
{entities}

llm_chain = LLMChain(llm=llm, prompt=prompt_template)
def generate_enhanced_image_prompt(entities):
"""
Use LangChain to generate an enhanced image prompt based on extracted entities.
"""
try:
# Convert entities to a comma-separated string.
entity_str = ", ".join(entity["word"] for entity in entities)
enhanced_prompt = llm_chain.run({"entities": entity_str})
print("Enhanced prompt:", enhanced_prompt)
return enhanced_prompt.strip()
except Exception as e:
print(f"Enhanced prompt generation error: {e}")
# Fallback to a simple prompt if LangChain fails.
return "A high-quality image with vivid details"
6. Image Acquisition with Parallel Processing

driver.get(search_url)
time.sleep(3) # Allow time for the page to load
soup = BeautifulSoup(driver.page_source, 'html.parser')
img_tags = soup.find_all("img")
image_urls = []

clip = ImageClip(resized_image).set_duration(duration).resize(newsize=resolution).set_start(start)
clips.append(clip)
video = CompositeVideoClip(clips, size=resolution)
audio = AudioFileClip(audio_file_path)
video = video.set_audio(audio)
output_video_path = "final_video.mp4"
video.write_videofile(output_video_path, fps=24)
print("Video created successfully:", output_video_path)
return output_video_path
except Exception as e:
raise RuntimeError(f"Video creation failed: {e}")
9. Final Integration & Orchestration
Tie all components together into a single processing pipeline with comprehensive error handling, parallel processing, and LangChain-enhanced prompt generation.
Key Concepts: End-to-end orchestration, scalability, and robust fallback mechanisms.
pythonCopyEditdef process_audio_to_video(audio_file, video_format, image_method):
try:
# Step 1: Transcribe audio.
transcription = transcribe_audio(audio_file)
# Step 2: Segment audio (each segment lasting 5 seconds).
segments, total_duration = segment_audio_and_transcription(transcription, audio_file, segment_duration=5)
# Step 3: Process segments concurrently.
from concurrent.futures import ThreadPoolExecutor, as_completed
image_segments = []
with ThreadPoolExecutor(max_workers=8) as executor:
future_to_seg = {executor.submit(process_segment, seg, video_format, image_method): seg for seg in segments}
for future in as_completed(future_to_seg):
try:
result = future.result()
if result:
image_segments.append(result)
else:
# Fallback: Use a default image if segment processing fails.
default_img = resize_image_to_format("default.jpg", get_resolution(video_format))
seg = future_to_seg[future]
image_segments.append((default_img, seg["start"], seg["end"]))
except Exception as e:
print(f"Error in segment processing: {e}")
seg = future_to_seg[future]
default_img = resize_image_to_format("default.jpg", get_resolution(video_format))
image_segments.append((default_img, seg["start"], seg["end"]))
# Step 4: Assemble the final video with synchronized image segments.
final_video_path = create_video_with_segments(image_segments, audio_file, video_format)
return final_video_path
except Exception as e:
return f"Error in processing audio-to-video: {e}"
Final Tips & Deployment
- Modular Testing & Debugging: Test each module independently (transcription, segmentation, NER, enhanced prompt generation, image acquisition, resizing, video assembly).
- Exception Logging: Log detailed errors to facilitate troubleshooting.
- Parallel Processing Tuning: Adjust ThreadPoolExecutor’s worker count based on your resources and expected load.
- Dependencies: Ensure that your
requirements.txt
includes all necessary packages (gradio, transformers, diffusers, selenium, beautifulsoup4, moviepy, Pillow, langchain, etc.). - Hugging Face Spaces Deployment: Confirm GPU support for Stable Diffusion and proper configuration for Selenium web drivers.
- User Experience: Consider adding progress indicators in the Gradio interface (e.g., “Transcribing audio…”, “Processing segment X of Y…”) to keep users informed.
This detailed prompt now incorporates LangChain to generate richer, context-aware image prompts from the extracted entities, improving the overall quality of the generated images and ultimately the final video. By combining robust error handling, parallel processing, and enhanced LLM-driven prompt generation, this blueprint offers a production-ready solution for building an advanced audio-to-video converter.
