hello!
I open a second topic because this issue is on another computer and is different from the issue in my other topic.
my computer is a macbook 2012 with w10 (in english)
I tried first with audacity 3.5.0 and the transcription failed.
Then i installed audacity 3.5.1 and the fix for openvino whisper to work with 3.5.1, and same fail happens.
here are the logs in audacity:

Got it. Unfortunately, I’ll need to have you run Audacity from cmd.exe (command prompt) and save a log in order to get more information about the specific error from whisper.cpp.
Can you open cmd.exe (command prompt), and do the following?
cd C:\Program Files\Audacity\
Audacity.exe > %appdata%\audacity\audacity_log_from_cmd.txt
Once Audacity comes up, run the transcription effect as usual, triggering the error. You can close Audacity once the error has been triggered.
Go to %appdata%\audacity\ (copy and paste that into Windows explorer), and you should find the audacity_log_from_cmd.txt that was saved.
very weird: before doing what you asked, i tried to launch audacity in administrator mode and transcription worked ONCE. In the same project, i tried a second time and it failed.
Then i ran audacity via admin cmd with the param you provided, and transcription failed again, the log you see is from this failure.
Hey @batmad, thanks! I didn’t see much from the log you shared… I was expecting to see the specific error after that last ‘Enabling’ message. But, you mentioned that it worked once and then failed on the second try… Which sounds very similar to a transcription issue that I debugged and will be posting a fix for soon (hopefully today). I think the next step here is to just download / install that updated patch release when it’s ready.
