| Task | "Transcribe", "Translate" | "Transcribe" | "Transcribe" converts the input audio into text in the selected language, while "Translate" converts it into text in English. |
| Language | See [Whisper's documentation](https://github.com/openai/whisper#available-models-and-languages) for the full list of supported languages | "Detect Language" | "Detect Language" will try to detect the spoken language in the audio based on the first few seconds. However, selecting a language is recommended (if known) as it will improve transcription quality in many cases. |
| Quality | "Very Low", "Low", "Medium", "High" | "Very Low" | The transcription quality determines the Whisper model used for transcription. "Very Low" uses the "tiny" model; "Low" uses the "base" model; "Medium" uses the "small" model; and "High" uses the "medium" model. The larger models produce higher-quality transcriptions, but require more system resources. See [Whisper's documentation](https://github.com/openai/whisper#available-models-and-languages) for more information about the models. |
