Not sure why it's not working

Open bitsByB opened this issue 11 months ago • 6 comments

Thanks for this app, it's been a long time I'm looking for it! I still don't have it working and I'm looking for advice.

What I've done so far:

  • I installed it through Flatpack.
  • I'm on AMD with a basic GPU
*-display                 
       description: VGA compatible controller
       product: Lucienne [1002:164C]
       vendor: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] [1002]
       physical id: 0
       bus info: pci@0000:05:00.0
       version: c2
       width: 64 bits
       clock: 33MHz
       capabilities: pm pciexpress msi msix vga_controller bus_master cap_list
       configuration: driver=amdgpu latency=0
       resources: iomemory:fc0-fbf iomemory:fc0-fbf irq:47 memory:fce0000000-fcefffffff memory:fcf0000000-fcf01fffff ioport:1000(size=256) memory:d0400000-d047ffff

I did installed the Speech Note AMD add-on. Question: Is it worth it or should I uninstall it?

  • installed English (FasterWhisper Large-v3 Turbo) / en model

But now when I press listen, I get a brief animation of the sound wave icon in the bottom left and then nothing, no sound is picked up...

Thanks for your help 🙏

Hey.Thanks for the report.

Could you please start the app with --verbose command-line option and paste here the output?

flatpak run net.mkiol.SpeechNote --verbose

I can see that UI is full of color-related bugs. Did you enable "Custom graphical style" in the settings?

Thanks for looking into this @mkiol 🙂

I can see that UI is full of color-related bugs. Did you enable "Custom graphical style" in the settings?

Yes I did, I thought that was the way to enable dark mode. Once I disabled it, the app started working correctly!

  1. I still see the warning asking if I want to enable hardware acceleration...?

I installed it, as mentioned in my first post 👆

  1. Do you think I should keep it installed even if my GPU is basic?

Here's the output after I disabled custom graphical style

I'm glad that something is finally working :)

I installed it [AMD add-on], as mentioned in my first post

No, uninstall it. The add-on provides the AMD ROCm framework, which most likely will not work well with your GPU. The message "To speed up processing..." is a suggestion to enable hardware acceleration in the settings (BTW, you can dismiss this warning permanently by clicking the button on the right). Your integrated-GPU claims it supports Vulkan, so you can try enabling Vulkan for the WisperCpp engine in Settings->Speech to Text->Engine options. Usually integrated GPUs don't work well, so chances are you'll have to turn off hardware acceleration and use only the CPU.

Image

Potentially Vulkan can speed up Speech-to-Text processing, but only if you use WhisperCpp models. FasterWhisper only works on NVIDIA GPUs or just CPUs - AMD GPUs are not supported.

The name FasterWhisper can be a bit misleading, as it implies that it is "faster" than other models, but this is not necessarily true. If Vulkan can run on your AMD card, WhisperCpp will provide the best performance.

mkiol avatar Jan 24 '25 19:01 mkiol

Aha! This is great! Alright so I:

  • uninstalled the add-on
  • selected vulkan
  • and downloaded WhisperCpp

And it works pretty great! thanks a lot man 🙂

Last few questions:

  1. Is the other option openVINO superior to Vulkan?

Image

Or should I deselect something in there?

Image

  1. Would you agree with this:

In summary, if you need faster transcription and can accept potential trade-offs in accuracy or resource usage, WhisperCpp Large-v3 Turbo would be the better choice. If accuracy is your top priority and speed is less critical, then WhisperCpp Large-v3 would be more suitable.

Image

  1. Does this option could allow me to have Speech Note's output directly in the browser for example? (like MacWhisper) If so, how am I suppose to use it... ?

Image

  1. How do you get your flawless dark mode and what are those options for?

Image

Thanks a lot @mkiol !

bitsByB avatar Jan 25 '25 04:01 bitsByB

Glad it works :)

Is the other option openVINO superior to Vulkan?

No, it isn't. OpenVINO in Speech Note can potentially provide better speed when using the CPU, but under very specific conditions (e.g. the sentence is long). Having Vulkan, OpenVINO is almost useless and I plan to remove or hide it in the next version.

Would you agree with this:

In summary, if you need faster transcription and can accept potential trade-offs in accuracy or resource usage, WhisperCpp Large-v3 Turbo would be the better choice. If accuracy is your top priority and speed is less critical, then WhisperCpp Large-v3 would be more suitable.

I agree. A comparison of the accuracy of each models can be found here: https://github.com/openai/whisper/discussions/2363#discussion-7264254. Lower WER the better accuracy.

For non-English-speaking users, it is worth mentioning that "Turbo" does not have a "translation" capability, so you cannot speak Spanish (or other lang) and receive text in English. Whisper models other than the Turbo (both WhisperCpp and FasterWhisper) have this capability. BTW, In Speech Note it can be enabled with a switch next to the Listen button.

Image

Or should I deselect something in there?

No. If everything works, don't change the advanced settings. Speech Note has them because there are so many different hardware and operating system settings, and I wanted a "toolbox" to solve unforeseen compatibility problems :)

Does this option could allow me to have Speech Note's output directly in the browser for example? (like MacWhisper) If so, how am I suppose to use it... ?

Exactly. You place the cursor on any text-accepting field (e.g., in a browser), then launch STT (e.g., using a global keyboard shortcut), say something, and the decoded text is automatically interested. At the moment, this only works on X11 desktops. In the next version (4.8.0), support for Wayland will be added.

The easiest way to launch it is via a global keyboard shortcut, but on Wayland this option is hidden. It will be fully supported in the next version.

How do you get your flawless dark mode and what are those options for?

Unfortunately, this is an unsolved problem. Speech Note's UI is written in Qt and looks great under KDE Plasma. Dark them is broken under GNOME and frankly I don't have any ideas how to solve this problem. To be honest, other Qt applications (not all) are also affected by this issue. You might try setting "Fusion" as a "custom graphic style".

mkiol avatar Jan 25 '25 15:01 mkiol

That's great @mkiol! Thanks so much for all those details.

  • So look, I don't have that switch in my version... and also when I speak in French to the turbo version it transcribe in English perfectly!

Image

  • Also it would be great if you could write a brief explanation on how to setup the STT option when you release the 4.8.0 version 👍 (I'm on Wayland)

  • The fusion is a bit better but not perfect, I don't mind keeping the light theme until there's a solution...

Thanks man!
