Use pre-trained deepspeech english model with 8khz audio files #13

Hi Aashish, Thanks for the repo. Great work.

I want to use deepspeech pre-trained model (on english). But i have 8khz audio files. One option is I upsample the audio files to 16khz and then use the pretrained model (0.6.1).

Would you know any other method where i can still use the 8khz audio files with the pre-trained deepspeech model?

@MittalShruti : The current DeepSpeech (v.0.6.0 and before) supports only 16kHz of audio files. The best solution, as you have already mentioned, is to up-sample the audio clips.
