Qwen3-ASR-Toolkit是一款开源的Python命令行工具,旨在解决Qwen3-ASR-Flash API的3分钟/10MB单次请求限制。该工具通过智能分块(基于语音活动检测VAD)、并行API调用以及利用FFmpeg进行音频重采样和格式标准化,实现了稳定、可配置的分钟级音频转录。它支持并发处理、上下文注入和文本后处理,为处理长音频文件提供了便捷高效的解决方案,无需用户自行开发复杂的编排逻辑。

🎤 **智能分块处理长音频**:该工具的核心功能在于其能够将超过API限制的长音频文件智能分割成多个小片段。它利用语音活动检测(VAD)技术,在自然的停顿处进行切分,确保每个片段都符合API的3分钟/10MB的限制要求,然后按顺序合并转录结果,实现对小时级音频的处理。

🚀 **高效并行处理提升吞吐量**:为了缩短长音频的转录时间,Qwen3-ASR-Toolkit采用了多线程池机制,能够并行地将音频片段发送至DashScope API。用户可以通过`-j`或`--num-threads`参数灵活配置并发线程数,从而显著提高处理速度,尤其适用于批量处理大量音频文件。

🎛️ **音频格式与采样率标准化**:该工具集成了FFmpeg,能够自动将各种常见的音频/视频格式(如MP4, MOV, MP3, WAV等)转换为API所要求的单声道16kHz格式。这确保了音频数据在提交给API前满足兼容性要求,简化了用户的预处理工作。

📝 **文本优化与上下文注入**:为了提高转录结果的准确性和可用性,该工具提供了文本后处理功能,可以减少重复和幻觉。此外,它还支持上下文注入,允许用户提供领域特定术语,以指导ASR模型进行更精确的识别,同时还暴露了语言检测和逆文本归一化(ITN)等API选项。

Qwen has released Qwen3-ASR-Toolkit, an MIT-licensed Python CLI that programmatically bypasses the Qwen3-ASR-Flash API’s 3-minute/10 MB per-request limit by performing VAD-aware chunking, parallel API calls, and automatic resampling/format normalization via FFmpeg. The result is stable, hour-scale transcription pipelines with configurable concurrency, context injection, and clean text post-processing. Python ≥3.8 prerequisite, Install with:

pip install qwen3-asr-toolkit

What the toolkit adds on top of the API

The official Qwen3-ASR-Flash API is single-turn and enforces ≤3 min duration and ≤10 MB payloads per call. That is reasonable for interactive requests but awkward for long media. The toolkit operationalizes best practices—VAD-aware segmentation + concurrent calls—so teams can batch large archives or live capture dumps without writing orchestration from scratch.

Quick start

    Install prerequisites
# System: FFmpeg must be available# macOSbrew install ffmpeg# Ubuntu/Debiansudo apt update && sudo apt install -y ffmpeg
    Install the CLI
pip install qwen3-asr-toolkit
    Configure credentials
# International endpoint keyexport DASHSCOPE_API_KEY="sk-..."
    Run
# Basic: local video, default 4 threadsqwen3-asr -i "/path/to/lecture.mp4"# Faster: raise parallelism and pass key explicitly (optional if env var set)qwen3-asr -i "/path/to/podcast.wav" -j 8 -key "sk-..."# Improve domain accuracy with contextqwen3-asr -i "/path/to/earnings_call.m4a" \  -c "tickers, CFO name, product names, Q3 revenue guidance"

Arguments you’ll actually use:
-i/--input-file (file path or http/https URL), -j/--num-threads, -c/--context, -key/--dashscope-api-key, -t/--tmp-dir, -s/--silence. Output is printed and saved as <input_basename>.txt.

Minimal pipeline architecture

    Load local file or URL → 2) VAD to find silence boundaries → 3) Chunk under API caps → 4) Resample to 16 kHz mono → 5) Parallel submit to DashScope → 6) Aggregate segments in order → 7) Post-process text (dedupe, repetitions) → 8) Emit .txt transcript.

Summary

Qwen3-ASR-Toolkit turns Qwen3-ASR-Flash into a practical long-audio pipeline by combining VAD-based segmentation, FFmpeg normalization (mono/16 kHz), and parallel API dispatch under the 3-minute/10 MB caps. Teams get deterministic chunking, configurable throughput, and optional context/LID/ITN controls without custom orchestration. For production, pin the package version, verify region endpoints/keys, and tune thread count to your network and QPS—then pip install qwen3-asr-toolkit and ship.
