Title: Video files are in Chinese, and subtitles are recognized as Traditional Chinese.

Dear Konstantin,

It's a pleasure to meet you and your Whisper project, which efficiently helps us convert videos into text. However, we have encountered a problem with WhisperDesktop.exe (version 1.8.0.0). The video files are in Chinese, and while most of the subtitles are in Simplified Chinese, a few have been recognized as Traditional Chinese.

We were wondering if it's possible to include both Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese options in the language or text selection drop-down menu.

You can use command line and add initial prompt to solve this. For example:

whisper.exe -osrt -l zh -m ggml-medium.bin -f "1.mp4" --prompt "这是一个简体中文的视频"

Is it possible to add a "prompt" inputbox (for --prompt in cmd line) in the settings area? Thx for your great work.

I doubt the prompt option. I added the prompt but the outputs were identical.
