[Feature Request]: Use faster-whisper #142

Closed thewh1teagle closed 2 months ago

thewh1teagle commented 3 months ago

Describe the feature

Once https://github.com/jkawamoto/ctranslate2-rs/issues/19 is added we can use whisper through ctranslate2 which is the same backend that faster-whisper. Potential: as it sounds, it will be faster than faster-whisper meaning it will transcribe 1 hour in less than a minute.

Downsides: seems like Ctranslate2 doesn't support OpenCL per https://github.com/OpenNMT/CTranslate2/issues/1556
