Transcription get stuck and start repeating phrases

Which OS are you using?

• OS: [Ubuntu 24.04]

I am trying to transcribe videos meetings recorded in serveral formats, mostly mkv and mp4. Some of them are transcribed good, some excellent, depending on the quality of the audio in the video, which is normal.

What I do see strange thou is that in some transcriptions the model seems to get stuck and start repeeting the same phrase over and over again. Some times it gets untuck and continue with the transcription normally and other repeat the same phase till the end.

I am seeting this behaviour mostly on a large-v2 running on fast-whisper

Any clue what should I try?. Is there any way to ensure better accuracy?.

Thanks in advance
