GroqCloud Model List: https://console.groq.com/playground
I particularly recommend the whisper-large-v3 and whisper-large-v3-turbo models, which can convert audio to subtitles and have basically the same effect as the official OpenAI models.
Other models are mainly used for text translation, such as llama-3.2-11b-text-preview and llama-3.2-90b-text-preview. It is recommended to choose models with larger parameters (such as 90b), which usually have better results.

As shown in the figure below, create a new API key.
Connect to Video Translation Software
In the video translation software, find the speech recognition settings (usually in the menu bar) and select the OpenAI Speech Recognition API option.
Fill in the following information:
- API URL:
https://api.groq.com/openai/v1 - API Key: The key you created in the previous step
- Available Models:
whisper-large-v3, whisper-large-v3-turbo, distil-whisper-large-v3-en(It is recommended to use only the first two, which support multiple languages; the last one only supports English)
Test
Use Other Models for Translation
Similarly, in the translation settings, select the OpenAI ChatGPT option, fill in https://api.groq.com/openai/v1 as the API address, enter your API key, and enter the name of the model you want to use in the text box. Do not select models that contain "vision" in the name, as these are visual models and may cause errors when used.
Troubleshooting: Connection Error
If the following error message appears, please check whether your scientific internet access tool is working properly and whether the system proxy or global proxy has been set correctly.
For example, some VPN software can automatically configure the system proxy.
