IndexError in Whisper model: Index out of bounds during token timestamp extraction

[GrahLnn]

I tried to transcribe an hour-long audio, but I got this error. I had good results with a two-minute task attempt, so I wanted to try the long audio. Is there any way to fix it? Thank you.

def transcribe_audio(file_path):
    device = "cuda:0" if torch.cuda.is_available() else "cpu"
    print(f"{device=}")
    torch_dtype = torch.float16 if torch.cuda.is_available() else torch.float32

    model_id = "nyrahealth/CrisperWhisper"

    model = AutoModelForSpeechSeq2Seq.from_pretrained(
        model_id, torch_dtype=torch_dtype, low_cpu_mem_usage=True, use_safetensors=True
    )
    model.to(device)

    processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained(model_id)

    pipe = pipeline(
        "automatic-speech-recognition",
        model=model,
        tokenizer=processor.tokenizer,
        feature_extractor=processor.feature_extractor,
        chunk_length_s=30,
        stride_length_s=4,
        batch_size=1,
        return_timestamps="word",
        torch_dtype=torch_dtype,
        device=device,
    )

    result = pipe(file_path)
    return result

and error

Hey,

the longform logic is something we will work on next since the transformers implementation is not ideal for our model.

However, hopefully for a quick fix you can try to install our custom fork and see if this fixes your problem: pip install git+https://github.com/nyrahealth/transformers.git@crisper_whisper

If this does not do it let me know and we look into it further together.

Best,

Laurin

Thank you for your help, now there is a new error.
