# WhisperLive-TensorRT # WhisperLive-TensorRT
We have only tested the TensorRT backend in docker so, we recommend docker for a smooth TensorRT backend setup. We have only tested the TensorRT backend in docker so, we recommend docker for a smooth TensorRT backend setup.
**Note**: We use `tensorrt_llm==0.15.0.dev2024111200` **Note**: We use `tensorrt_llm==0.18.2`
