This release is a pre-release and may not be stable for production use.
Description
This plugin adds Faster Whisper speech recognition to OpenVoiceOS. Faster Whisper is a fast inference engine for OpenAI's Whisper automatic speech recognition models.
The plugin also provides a language detection transformer for ovos-dinkum-listener.
Install
pip install ovos-stt-plugin-fasterwhisper
Models
The plugin supports these Whisper model names: tiny.en, tiny, base.en, base, small.en, small, medium.en, medium, large-v1, large-v2, large-v3, large, distil-large-v2, distil-medium.en, distil-small.en, distil-large-v3.
You can also pass a full path to a local model, or a Hugging Face repo ID, for example projecte-aina/faster-whisper-large-v3-ca-3catparla.
To use a model that is not already in Faster Whisper format, convert it, or pick a compatible model on Hugging Face.
Configuration
This example configures the large-v3 model to run on GPU:
"stt": {
"module": "ovos-stt-plugin-fasterwhisper",
"ovos-stt-plugin-fasterwhisper": {
"model": "large-v3",
"use_cuda": true,
"compute_type": "float16",
"beam_size": 5,
"cpu_threads": 4
}
}
This example uses Faster Whisper for language detection. It works only with ovos-dinkum-listener.
"listener": {
"audio_transformers": {
"ovos-audio-transformer-plugin-fasterwhisper": {
"model": "small"
}
}
}
