Problem Description

When using the Deepgram API, I cannot choose a language. The default language of nova-3 is English, even when I speak other languages.

Desired Solution you'd like

Add a feature to select a language, using the official API example:


curl \
  -X POST \
  -H "Authorization: Token api" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"url":"https://static.deepgram.com/examples/Bueller-Life-moves-pretty-fast.wav"}' \
  "https://api.deepgram.com/v1/listen?smart_format=true&language=multi&model=nova-3"

Yes i have tried using Deepgram nova-3 here too (germany) and noticed this too...
Would be great so we could use it in other languages

I temporarily tinkered around in
/app/backend/open_webui/routers/audio.py
Unfortunately, that's all I can do for now, but it works at the moment until (hopefully) it gets properly implemented.

            #this replaces the original params-part
            params = {
                "smart_format": "true",
                "detect_language": "true",
                "model": "nova-3"
            }

            # Make request to Deepgram API
            r = requests.post(
                "https://api.deepgram.com/v1/listen",
                headers=headers,
                params=params,
                data=file_data,
            )
            r.raise_for_status()
            response_data = r.json()

I'm still having a little trouble choosing a language while using the Deepgram Voice API. Am I missing something?

Perhaps, we should create another issue
