feat(speech): add whisper.cpp with Vulkan support for GPU acceleration (#179)
* feat(speech): add whisper.cpp with Vulkan support for GPU acceleration Add whisper.cpp as a new speech recognition engine with the following features: - Vulkan GPU acceleration support (AMD, Intel, NVIDIA) - Fallback to CUDA for NVIDIA GPUs - CPU-only mode with automatic thread optimization - Support for all model sizes: tiny, base, small, medium, large - Hardware detection to recommend best model/backend - Models downloaded from Hugging Face (ggml format) - Updated UI to show compute backend info in settings - pywhispercpp as the Python binding library - whisper_cpp as the new default engine Changes: - New whispercpp_model_info.py with model metadata and hardware detection - Updated recognition_manager.py with whisper.cpp init and transcription - Updated settings_dialog.py with whisper.cpp UI support - Updated config_manager.py with whisper_cpp_model_size config - Updated main.py with whisper_cpp CLI option - Updated pyproject.toml with pywhispercpp dependency - Updated install.sh with vulkan-tools for GPU detection Closes #104 * style: fix black and isort formatting issues * test: update config manager test for whisper_cpp default engine * feat(install): interactive mode with 3 engine choices and whisper.cpp as default Major changes to install.sh: - Interactive mode is now the DEFAULT (not --auto) - Added --auto flag for non-interactive automatic installation - New --engine flag to specify engine directly - Interactive mode shows 3 engine options with visual boxes: 1. whisper.cpp (recommended) - Vulkan/CUDA/CPU support 2. whisper (OpenAI) - PyTorch-based, NVIDIA-only 3. VOSK - lightweight option - Hardware detection with recommendations: - Detects Vulkan support (AMD/Intel/NVIDIA) - Detects NVIDIA CUDA - Checks available RAM - Recommends best engine based on hardware - Updated help text with new options and examples - Removed old --with-whisper, --whisper-cpu, --no-whisper flags - whisper.cpp is now the default engine for automatic mode * feat(uninstall): kill running vocalinux processes before uninstall * fix(whisper.cpp): auto-download model, use all CPU cores, hide unavailable engines Three fixes for whisper.cpp implementation: 1. Auto-download model during install - Added install_whispercpp_model() function to install.sh - Downloads ggml-tiny.bin (~39MB) from Hugging Face - Runs automatically when whisper.cpp engine is selected 2. Use all CPU cores for transcription - Added n_threads parameter to Model initialization - Uses multiprocessing.cpu_count() to get all cores - Significantly improves transcription speed 3. Hide unavailable engines from dropdown - Added get_available_engines() function to detect installed engines - Settings dialog now only shows engines that are actually installed - Falls back to first available engine if current not available Fixes user-reported issues with whisper.cpp integration. * ui(settings): display whisper.cpp correctly and increase dialog height - Changed engine display name from 'whisper_cpp' to 'whisper.cpp' - Added format_engine_display_name() helper function - Dialog now uses 75% of screen height for better visibility - More options visible by default without scrolling * revert(settings): remove display name change, keep dialog height increase - Reverted engine display name change (was breaking engine selection) - Kept dialog height at 75% of screen for better visibility * style: fix black and isort formatting for whisper.cpp logging * style: fix black formatting in settings_dialog.py * ci: fix Fedora 39 container package installation Add dnf cache update and fallback with --nogpgcheck for Fedora containers that may have stale or missing package metadata.
