* whisper : improve whisper-cli executable path detection in model download shell scripts
If whisper-cli is found on the path, do not suggest invoking from build directory. This improves flexibility and usability for distribution and packaging scenarios.
* whisper : enhance Windows model download batch script to have comparable functionality and behaviour as shell scripts
* Download models to the current directory if the script is executed from the \bin\ directory (for future distribution scenarios where the script is in the \bin\ subdirectory of a Windows build)
* Add model_path command line argument
* If whisper-cli is found on the path, do not suggest invoking from build directory
* whisper : resolve compiler warning by removing duplicate definition of NOMINMAX in whisper-cli code
This commit updates the hisper.objc README.md to reflect the changes of
using the xcframework and the new build process.
Since whisper.cpp is no longer compiled by the example project, instead
the library from the xframework will be used, the build instructions
have been removed.
This commit adds a check for `WHISPER_SDL2` to the deprecation warning
examples. This is to prevent the examples from being built when
WHISPER_SDL2 is not enabled.
The motivation for this is that currently these deprecation executables
are generate and when run they refer the user to examples with other
names, for example `whisper-command` but unless they have built with
`WHISPER_SDL2` those executable will not be present:
```console
$ ls build/bin/
bench command main quantize stream whisper-bench whisper-cli
whisper-server
$ ./build/bin/command
WARNING: The binary 'command' is deprecated.
Please use 'whisper-command' instead.
See https://github.com/ggerganov/whisper.cpp/tree/master/examples/deprecation-warning/README.md for more information.
```
This commit updates the README files for the wasm examples to include
instructions on how to run the examples using the provided server.py
which was included in Commit 6e8242f7fe
("examples : command.wasm updates (#2904)").
The motivation for this is consistency with the command.wasm example.
This commit updates the command.wasm example by adding a server.py script to make it easy to start a local http server to try out the example, updates the build instructions, and also addresses some of the compiler warnings that were being generated.
* emscripten : fix TOTAL_STACK for wasm
This commit moves the TOTAL_STACK setting from the compile flags to the
linker flags. This is because the TOTAL_STACK setting is a linker
setting.
The motivation for this change is that currently the following warnings
are generated when building:
```console
em++: warning: linker setting ignored during compilation: 'TOTAL_STACK' [-Wunused-command-line-argument]
em++: warning: linker setting ignored during compilation: 'TOTAL_STACK' [-Wunused-command-line-argument]
em++: warning: linker setting ignored during compilation: 'TOTAL_STACK' [-Wunused-command-line-argument]

* examples : suppress C++17 deprecation warning for std::codecvt_utf8
This commit suppresses the C++17 deprecation warning for
std::codecvt_utf8 similar to what is done in
examples/talk-llama/unicode.cpp.
The motivation for this change is to suppress these warnings:

* ggml : suppress double-promotion warning in GGML_F16x4_REDUCE
This commit adds a cast to `ggml_float` in the `GGML_F16x4_REDUCE` macro
to suppress a double-promotion warning.
Currently the following warning is generated when compiling the
command.wasm example:
```console
/whisper-work/ggml/src/ggml-cpu/ggml-cpu.c:1592:5: warning: implicit conversion increases floating-point precision: 'float' to 'ggml_float' (aka 'double') [-Wdouble-promotion]

```
wasm_f32x4_extract_lane returns a 32-bit float and this is what the
addition is performed on. But there is an implicit conversion from
32-bit float to 64-bit double when the result is assigned to `res`,
which is of type `ggml_float`. My understanding here is that this is
intentional and adding a cast to `ggml_float` should suppress the
warning.
* emscripten : add -Wno-deprecated to for emscripten
This commit adds -Wno-deprecated to the CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS for emscripten
builds.
The motivation for this is that currently there a number of warnings
generated like the following:
```console
warning: JS library symbol '$print' is deprecated. Please open a bug if you have a continuing need for this symbol [-Wdeprecated]
warning: JS library symbol '$printErr' is deprecated. Please open a bug if you have a continuing need for this symbol [-Wdeprecated]
em++: warning: warnings in JS library compilation [-Wjs-compiler]
em++: warning: linker setting ignored during compilation: 'ENVIRONMENT' [-Wunused-command-line-argument]
warning: JS library symbol '$print' is deprecated. Please open a bug if you have a continuing need for this symbol [-Wdeprecated]
warning: JS library symbol '$printErr' is deprecated. Please open a bug if you have a continuing need for this symbol [-Wdeprecated]
em++: warning: warnings in JS library compilation [-Wjs-compiler]
warning: JS library symbol '$print' is deprecated. Please open a bug if you have a continuing need for this symbol [-Wdeprecated]
warning: JS library symbol '$printErr' is deprecated. Please open a bug if you have a continuing need for this symbol [-Wdeprecated]
em++: warning: warnings in JS library compilation [-Wjs-compiler]
em++: warning: linker setting ignored during compilation: 'ENVIRONMENT' [-Wunused-command-line-argument]
em++: warning: linker setting ignored during compilation: 'ENVIRONMENT' [-Wunused-command-line-argument]
```
The downside of this is that we might miss other deprecation warnings
in the future so I'm not sure if this is acceptable. But it make the
wasm examples cleaner without the warnings.
* examples : fix tautological-compare warning in stb_vorbis.c [no ci]
This commit applies a fix to address a tautological-compare warning
in stb_vorbis.c.
The motivation for this is that currently the following warning is
generated when compiling the commmand-wasm example:
```console
/Users/danbev/work/ai/whisper-work/examples/stb_vorbis.c:1404:75: warning: pointer comparison always evaluates to false [-Wtautological-compare]
1404 | if (f->stream_start + loc >= f->stream_end || f->stream_start + loc < f->stream_start) {
| ^
1 warning generated.
```
This fix was taken from an open pull request on the stb repository
that addreses this issue:
https://github.com/nothings/stb/pull/1746
* squash! examples : update command.wasm instructions [no ci]
This commit adds a Python script to serve the the wasm examples build
in the `build-em` directory. Initially I thought that it would be enough
to start a simple python server but I did not notice that there was an
error in the browser console when I did that:
```console
command.js:1 Uncaught (in promise) DataCloneError: Failed to execute 'postMessage' on 'Worker': SharedArrayBuffer transfer requires self.crossOriginIsolated.
at command.js:1:1206224
at new Promise (<anonymous>)
at loadWasmModuleToWorker (command.js:1:1204981)
at Array.map (<anonymous>)
at Object.loadWasmModuleToAllWorkers (command.js:1:1206428)
at command.js:1:1204318
at callRuntimeCallbacks (command.js:1:1202062)
at preRun (command.js:1:6136)
at run (command.js:1:1294094)
at removeRunDependency (command.js:1:7046)
```
We need a few CORS headers to be set and in order hopefully make this
easy for users a Python script is added to the examples directory.
This should be able to server all the wasm examples provided they have
been built. command.wasm's README.md is updated to reflect this change.
* examples : remove unused functions
This commit removed the unused functions convert_to_utf8 and
convert_to_wstring from examples/common.cpp.
* Revert "examples : fix tautological-compare warning in stb_vorbis.c [no ci]"
This reverts commit 8e3c47d961.
We should not make this change here and instead when the upstream PR is
merged we can sync with it.

* examples : use xcframework in whisper.objc example
This commit updates the whisper.objc example to use the xcframework.
The motivation for this to be consistent with the swift example and to
also act as a reference for how to use the xcframework in an objc
project.
Resolves: https://github.com/ggerganov/whisper.cpp/issues/2881
* examples : setup audio session viewDidload
This commit adds the setup of the audio session in the viewDidload
method of the ViewController.m file. This is necessary to allow the app
to record audio.
The motivation for this is that without this it was not possible to
caputue audio from the microphone. It was possible to click on the
Capture button but nothing happened after that, and the button was not
marked red indicating that the button could be clicked again to stop
capturing. With this change it is possible to capture audio from the
microphone and get it transcribed.
This commit adds the GGML_USE_CPU=ON flag to the whisper.objc project in
order to enable the CPU backend for the whisper.objc project.
The motivation for this change is that currently the following error
is generated when running the example:
```console
ggml_backend_buffer_type_t ggml_backend_get_default_buffer_type(ggml_backend_t backend) {
return ggml_backend_dev_buffer_type(backend->device); <- Thread 1: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (code=1, address=0x70)
}
```
If we inspect the `backend` variable we can see that it is a `nullptr`.
```console
(lldb) p backend
(ggml_backend_t) nullptr
```
When running in a simulator and that automatically means that there will
be no gpu as there is a check for this in the code. But the CPU backend
should still be present.
The objective-c code will compile the whisper sources including the ggml
sources. And if `-DGGMLL_USE_CPU` is not defined then there will be no
CPU backend, and in this particular case of backend at all.

* examples : add dl to the list of libraries linked
This commit adds the dynamic linker library to the list of libraries
linked by the examples.
The motivation for this change is that when building the examples on
ubuntu 20.04, which uses GCC 9.4.0, the dynamic linker requires
explicit linking or the following error is generated:
```console

* feat: Add beam size parameter to stream.cpp for beam search configuration
* feat: Add beam size parameter to whisper full params in stream example
* fix: Remove duplicate beam search size assignment in server.cpp
#Summary
This Merge Request adds a mechanism to generate unique filenames for FFmpeg conversions in whisper_server.cpp. Previously, a single fixed filename was used (e.g., whisper-server-tmp.wav), which could result in unexpected file overwrites under certain circumstances. By generating a unique filename per request, any risk of overwriting temporary files is eliminated.
#Background / Motivation
• Problem: Relying on a static filename for temporary audio files may lead to overwrites if multiple operations occur simultaneously or if the same file name is reused.
• Goal: Dynamically generate unique filenames, ensuring each request or operation uses an isolated temporary file.
* The parameter will suppress non-speech tokens like [LAUGH], [SIGH], etc. from the output when enabled.
* add to whisper_params_parse
* add missing param
* Adding missing CMakeLists.txt include for ggm-cpu needed by whisper.android
* attempt to re-enable CI for JNI android
