MoneyPrinterTurbo: One-Click AI Video Generator with 90K+ Stars

TL;DR — MoneyPrinterTurbo is an open-source Python tool that turns a video topic or keyword into a complete HD short video — auto-generating the script, sourcing copyright-free stock footage, creating subtitles, adding background music, and composing everything into a vertical 9:16 or horizontal 16:9 video. With 90,000+ GitHub stars, it supports dozens of LLM providers, multiple TTS engines, and one-click publishing to TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and Instagram Reels.

What Is MoneyPrinterTurbo?

MoneyPrinterTurbo takes a single input — a video topic or keyword — and produces a finished short video in minutes. The pipeline is fully automated: 1. Script generation — AI writes a compelling video script in Chinese or English 2. Stock footage sourcing — Downloads copyright-free clips from Pexels, Pixabay, and Coverr 3. Voice synthesis — Generates narration using Edge TTS (free) or Azure TTS V2 (premium) 4. Subtitle creation — Produces synchronized subtitles with customizable fonts, colors, and positions 5. Background music — Adds royalty-free background music with adjustable volume 6. Video composition — Uses MoviePy 2.x to stitch everything together into HD video

The result is a production-ready short video suitable for TikTok, YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, or any social platform.

Configuration

After cloning, copy config.example.toml to config.toml and configure your settings: `````toml [app]

Video output settings

video_width = 1080 video_height = 1920 # 9:16 portrait mode fps = 30

Subtitle settings

subtitle_enabled = true subtitle_font = “Arial” subtitle_color = “white”

[basic_tts]

Edge TTS is free, no API key needed

provider = “edge-tts” voice_name = “en-US-GuyNeural”

[azure]

Optional: for Azure TTS V2 premium voices

speech_key = “your-azure-speech-key” speech_region = “eastus”

[llm]

Choose your LLM provider

provider = “openai” # or gemini, ollama, deepseek, etc. api_key = “your-api-key” model = “gpt-4o”

[pexels]

Stock footage sources (free API keys)

api_keys = [“your-pexels-api-key”]

[pixabay] api_keys = [“your-pixabay-api-key”]

[coverr]

Alternative stock footage

api_keys = [“your-coverr-api-key”]


## Usage Examples

### Web UI

Launch the Streamlit web interface and enter a video topic: `````bash
uv run streamlit run ./webui/Main.py

Open http://localhost:8501 in your browser. Enter a topic like “The importance of exercise” and the tool will: 1. Generate a script using your configured LLM 2. Search for relevant stock footage 3. Create voiceover narration 4. Generate synchronized subtitles 5. Assemble everything into a finished video

Command Line Interface

For headless operation or automation: `````bash

Generate video from a topic

uv run python cli.py –video-subject “The importance of exercise”

Specify local video materials

uv run python cli.py
–video-subject “Exercise benefits”
–video-source local
–video-materials “clip1.mp4,clip2.mp4”
–stop-at video

Generate only the script (for review)

uv run python cli.py
–video-subject “Healthy eating”
–stop-at script

Generate script and voiceover only

uv run python cli.py
–video-subject “Healthy eating”
–stop-at audio


### API Endpoint

MoneyPrinterTurbo exposes a REST API for programmatic access: `````bash
# Start the API service
uv run python main.py

# Then access Swagger docs at http://localhost:8080/docs

Subtitle Generation

Two subtitle generation modes are available: ### Edge Mode (Fast)

Uses Edge TTS timing stamps
Fast, no GPU required
Works on any machine
Occasionally inaccurate timestamps for complex sentences

Whisper Mode (Accurate)

Uses local faster-whisper for audio transcription
More granular timestamps
Requires downloading model files (~250MB for turbo, ~3GB for large-v3)
Better subtitle accuracy overall

Switch modes in config.toml: `````toml [subtitle] provider = “edge” # or “whisper”


For Whisper mode, download the model from HuggingFace. If you're in China and can"t access HuggingFace directly: - **Baidu Pan:** https://pan.baidu.com/s/11h3Q6tsDtjQKTjUu3sc5cA?pwd=xjs9
- **Quark Pan:** https://pan.quark.cn/s/3ee3d991d64b

Extract and place in ``MoneyPrinterTurbo/models/whisper-large-v3/``: `````
MoneyPrinterTurbo/
  models/
    whisper-large-v3/
      config.json
      model.bin
      preprocessor_config.json
      tokenizer.json
      vocabulary.json

Cross-Platform Publishing

MoneyPrinterTurbo can automatically publish generated videos to social platforms via Upload-Post: `````toml [upload] enabled = true platforms = [“tiktok”, “youtube_shorts”, “instagram_reels”] youtube_privacy_status = “private” # or “public”, “unlisted”


YouTube publishing automatically marks AI-generated content as required by platform policies.

## System Requirements

| Component | Minimum | Recommended | Ideal |
|
* * *
|
* * *
|
* * *
|
* * *
|
| CPU | 4 cores | 6-8 cores | 8+ cores |
| RAM | 4 GB | 8 GB | 16+ GB |
| GPU | Not required | 4 GB VRAM | 8 GB VRAM |
| Disk | 2 GB | 5 GB | 10 GB |

GPU is optional but helps with: - Local Whisper transcription
- Faster video processing
- Smoother batch generation

If you rely mainly on cloud LLMs, cloud TTS, and online footage sources, CPU and RAM matter more than GPU.

## Troubleshooting

### No ffmpeg Found

RuntimeError: No ffmpeg exe could be found.


Download ffmpeg from https://www.gyan.dev/ffmpeg/builds/ and set the path: `````toml
[app]
ffmpeg_path = "C:\\Users\\YourName\\Downloads\\ffmpeg.exe"

Too Many Open Files

OSError: [Errno 24] Too many open files

Increase the limit: `````bash ulimit -n 10240


### Whisper Model Download Failure

If you see ````LocalEntryNotFoundError````, download the model manually (see Subtitle Generation section above).

### ImageMagick Errors

The current version no longer requires ImageMagick — it uses Pillow for subtitle rendering after upgrading to MoviePy 2.x. If you still see errors, update your code: `````bash
git pull
# Windows: run update.bat

Getting Started Checklist

Clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/harry0703/MoneyPrinterTurbo.git
Copy config: cp config.example.toml config.toml
Add your API keys (at minimum, a Pexels API key for footage)
Choose your LLM provider (Ollama for free local, or OpenAI for best quality)
Start Docker: docker compose -f docker-compose.release.yml up
Open Web UI at http://localhost:8501

Review, tweak, and regenerate if needed

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Do I need API keys for everything?

No. Edge TTS is completely free and requires no key. For stock footage, Pexels and Pixabay offer free API keys. The LLM provider is optional — you can use local Ollama models for free, or skip script generation and use custom scripts.

Q: Can I use my own video素材 (materials)?

Yes. Set video_source to local and provide a comma-separated list of video file paths. The tool will use your local files instead of fetching from stock sources.

Q: How long does video generation take?

Typically 2-10 minutes depending on video length, LLM response time, and whether Whisper transcription is enabled. Docker deployment tends to be faster than local Python installs due to optimized dependencies.

Q: Can I generate videos in languages other than Chinese and English?

The default script generation supports Chinese and English. For other languages, you can write custom scripts and use the appropriate TTS voice. The stock footage and music are language-agnostic.

Q: Does it work on Raspberry Pi?

Yes, though slowly. The Docker image supports ARM64. For best results on Pi, use Edge TTS (no heavy model downloads) and skip Whisper subtitle generation.

Q: How do I change the output aspect ratio?

Edit config.toml: `````toml [app] video_width = 1080 video_height = 1920 # 9:16 portrait (TikTok/Shorts)

OR

video_width = 1920 video_height = 1080 # 16:9 landscape (YouTube)
