A small release for a big model: Large V3 Turbo couldn't download on new machines. Now it can, and it brought a lighter sibling.

Large V3 Turbo installs again. Picking it on a machine that didn't already have it failed with "Model Not Found" (#30): a fresh download asked the model library for a folder name that doesn't exist there. Parrot now asks for the right one, so the download just works — nothing to configure. Thanks @anibalsouza for the report with the exact error in it.

New model: Large V3 Turbo Compressed. The same OpenAI turbo checkpoint at 626 MB — near-best accuracy with far less memory and disk, and a much lighter first download. Suggested by @onraz. It's in Settings → Transcription, and the user guide's settings page covers it.

A heads-up for existing Turbo users. The Turbo option now fetches OpenAI's genuine turbo checkpoint, so your first launch after updating re-downloads it once (1.6 GB — the old label said 1.5, it fibbed).

What's Changed

  • Fix Large V3 Turbo model download, add 626 MB compressed variant in #32
