    whisper.cpp

    whisper.cpp

    Port of OpenAI's Whisper model in C/C++

    whisper.cpp is a lightweight, C/C++ reimplementation of OpenAI’s Whisper automatic speech recognition (ASR) model—designed for efficient, standalone transcription without external dependencies. The entire high-level implementation of the model is contained in whisper.h and whisper.cpp. The rest of the code is part of the ggml machine learning library. The command downloads the base.en model converted to custom ggml format and runs the inference on all .wav samples in the folder samples. whisper.cpp supports integer quantization of the Whisper ggml models. Quantized models require less memory and disk space and depending on the hardware can be processed more efficiently.

    Stockfish

    Stockfish

    UCI chess engine

    Stockfish is a free, powerful UCI chess engine derived from Glaurung 2.1. Stockfish is not a complete chess program and requires a UCI-compatible graphical user interface (GUI) (e.g. XBoard with PolyGlot, Scid, Cute Chess, eboard, Arena, Sigma Chess, Shredder, Chess Partner or Fritz) in order to be used comfortably. Read the documentation for your GUI of choice for information about how to use Stockfish with it. Stockfish is a 11-time winner of the Top Chess Engine Championship. Stockfish is open source (GPLv3 license). That means you can read the code, modify it, and contribute back. You can use Stockfish on your computer or on your iOS or Android device. So you can get world-class chess analysis, wherever you are. The Stockfish engine features two evaluation functions for chess, the classical evaluation based on handcrafted terms, and the NNUE evaluation based on efficiently updatable neural networks.

    Open Source H.264 Codec

    Cisco has taken their H.264 implementation and open-sourced it under BSD license terms. Development and maintenance will be overseen by a board from the industry and the open-source community. Furthermore, we have provided a binary form suitable for inclusion in applications across a number of different operating systems and made this binary module available for download from the Internet. We will not pass on our MPEG-LA licensing costs for this module, and based on the current licensing environment, this will effectively make H.264 free for use on supported platforms. OpenH264 is a codec library which supports H.264 encoding and decoding. It is suitable for use in real-time applications such as WebRTC. Constrained Baseline Profile up to Level 5.2 (Max frame size is 36864 macro-blocks). Arbitrary resolution, not constrained to multiples of 16x16. Rate control with adaptive quantization, or constant quantization.

The AVI format allows recordings to replay at the correct frame rate on media players. If a microphone is installed then a WAV file is also created and stored in the AVI file. The ESP32 cannot support all of the features as it will run out of heap space. For better functionality and performance, use one of the new ESP32S3 camera boards, eg Freenove ESP32S3 Cam, and ESP32S3 XIAO Sense, but avoid no-name boards marked ESPS3 RE:1.0.

    Play! is an open-source cross-platform emulator for Sony’s PlayStation 2 that aims to run PS2 games on a wide range of modern systems including Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS, and web browsers by implementing core PS2 hardware functionality in software. It emulates primary components like the Emotion Engine CPU and graphics synthesizer, translating game code and hardware calls into host system operations, while providing users with controls to load disc images, manage states, and configure rendering options. Because the PS2’s architecture is complex and proprietary, Play! pursues compatibility incrementally, with many titles playable to varying degrees and an active compatibility tracker detailing individual game status. The project supports optimizations such as JIT code generation on compatible platforms to improve performance and offers a broad set of build targets so developers and users can experiment with different back ends and environments.
