Question: Adding second translation language

[Didaktik-digital]

Hi there Macoron,

what a wonderful asset - thank you so much for providing it freely!
I really tried o figoure out how to add a second translation language - but so far I have failed.

So, I was hoping you could help me out on how to add "translateToFrench" method to the Microphone example.

Unfortunately, whisper was trained only for English translation. However, you still kinda can translate speech from other languages to French. In WhisperManager set Language field from "auto" to "fr". Now whisper will try to output text in French.

It's not ideal, quality would be relatively low. You would also need a bigger model: small, medium or large.

There are also unofficial French only models, like this. No idea if they would work better or worse for French translation.
