Question, can vad_filter be specified as environment variable in docker compose?

[yroyathon]

I'd like to add "- vad_filter=True" to my environment section of my docker compose, to set that option for any calls to the /asr endpoint https://ahmetoner.com/whisper-asr-webservice/endpoints/ . Will that work as I hope?

I notice vad_filter is not mentioned in the environmental variable section here https://ahmetoner.com/whisper-asr-webservice/environmental-variables/ . So perhaps this is not yet possible. If that's the case, I'd like to request that it be possible, as it sounds like a great performance enhancement for faster-whisper models.

Thanks.

vad filter is enabled automatically when using faster_whisper on the transcription end point, unless there is a valid reason to ever disable vad_filter I believe the current solution would be sufficient

relevant line

@aidancrowther But I don't see that it's automatically set to True. Or are you saying this line resolves into vad_filter = True if you're using faster_whisper ?

[aidancrowther]

Exactly, it should be resolving to true when using the faster whisper model. I can double check it does resolve that way, but that should be the behavior
