+# Copy this file to the same directory as docker-compose.yml before starting.

+# --- Model ---
+# 'medium.en' is the sweet spot for CPU-only English meetings:
+# accurate, comfortably real-time, ~1.5 GB RAM.
+# Upgrade to 'large-v3-turbo' if accuracy is more important than latency;
+# downgrade to 'small.en' if you find CPU usage too high.
+WHISPERLIVE_MODEL=medium.en

+# Change to 'auto' if your meetings include other languages.
