Version 3.1.0

· One min read
  • New and significantly easier way to install or update technology licenses - they are now loaded from a separate YAML file. Just unzip the licensed models package to the data disk and the system loads the licenses automatically.

    ⚠️ NOTE: The new license format is not compatible with previous versions, i.e. licenses used in earlier Virtual Appliance versions cannot be used in this version and a new license needs to be obtained from Phonexia.

  • Added Language Identification technology preview in GUI.
  • Added Speaker Diarization technology ([high-level description(/products/speech-platform-4/technologies/speaker-diarization)) preview in GUI.
  • Added possibility to run Voiceprint Extraction on GPU to significantly boost the extraction performance.
  • Virtual Appliance configuration changes are now automatically applied to corresponding components (no restarts needed anymore).
  • Lower memory consumption during processing due to internal components optimizations.
Included Components
  • Enhanced Speech to Text Built on Whisper 1.4.0
  • Speech to Text Phonexia 6th Generation 3.61.0
  • Time Analysis of Speech 3.61.0
  • Voiceprint Comparison 1.1.0
  • Voiceprint Extraction 1.4.0
