# dinome

|
|
*Dixi, notavi, memini*: "I spoke, I noted, I remember".
|
|
|
|
Meeting notes for Google Meet that work in Croatian and English. A Chrome extension captures the call, and the dinome app shows a live transcript with speaker names next to your notes. The speech recognition runs on your own computer, so audio and transcripts never leave it.
|
|
|
|
This repository holds the Windows installers.
|
|
|
|
## Download
|
|
|
|
**[dinome-Setup-0.3.1.exe](https://git.mariosem.es/msemes/dinome-releases/releases/download/v0.3.1/dinome-Setup-0.3.1.exe)**, version 0.3.1 from 2026-10-15, 117 MB.
|
|
|
|
Release notes and older versions are on the [releases page](https://git.mariosem.es/msemes/dinome-releases/releases).
|
|
|
|
## Install
|
|
|
|
1. Run the installer. It installs dinome for your Windows user only and needs no administrator rights.
|
|
2. Windows may warn about an unknown publisher, because the installer is not code-signed. Choose **More info**, then **Run anyway**.
|
|
3. dinome opens a setup guide. Follow its steps:
|
|
- **Speech engine.** dinome downloads it once. With an NVIDIA graphics card that is about 2 GB, without one a few hundred MB.
|
|
- **Croatian model.** About 3.2 GB is downloaded and converted on your computer; 1.6 GB stays on disk.
|
|
- **Chrome extension.** Open `chrome://extensions` in Chrome and turn on **Developer mode**. Click **Load unpacked** and choose `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\dinome\resources\extension`. The setup guide has a button that opens this folder.
|
|
4. Join a Google Meet call and click the dinome icon in Chrome's toolbar, or press **Alt+Shift+N**, to start the transcript.
|
|
|
|
## Requirements
|
|
|
|
- Windows 10 or 11, 64-bit, with Google Chrome.
|
|
- An NVIDIA graphics card with 6 GB of memory or more is recommended. Without one, dinome runs on the processor, which is much slower.
|
|
- About 8 GB of free disk space during setup and 5 GB afterwards.
|
|
- Internet access for the first start. After that, only Google Meet itself, the update check and, if you choose ChatGPT or Claude for summaries, the summaries use the network.
|
|
|
|
## Updates
|
|
|
|
dinome checks this repository for new versions. When one is out, the top bar shows **Update to** and the new version number. Nothing is downloaded until you click it, and dinome restarts into the new version only when you choose to, never during a meeting.
|
|
|
|
After an update, dinome may ask you to reload the Chrome extension. Open `chrome://extensions` and click the reload icon on the dinome card.

|
|
|
|
## Uninstall
|
|
|
|
Open Windows **Settings**, then **Apps**, then **Installed apps**, and uninstall dinome.
|
|
|
|
Your meetings and notes stay in `%APPDATA%\dinome`. The speech engine and models, about 5 GB, stay in `%LOCALAPPDATA%\dinome`. Delete those folders to remove everything.
|
|
|
|
## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
- **"The connection to Hugging Face was blocked on this computer"**: a firewall or antivirus blocked dinome's new Python program. Allow the programs in `%LOCALAPPDATA%\dinome\engine`, then click **Try again**.
|
|
- **"Chrome extension not connected"**: check that the extension is loaded from the folder above and switched on, then click its reload icon in `chrome://extensions`.
|
|
- Logs are in `%APPDATA%\dinome\logs`.
