pipecat-ai 0.0.52

v0.0.52

on Python PyPI

Added

• Constructor arguments for GoogleLLMService to directly set tools and tool_config.

• Smart turn detection example (22d-natural-conversation-gemini-audio.py) that leverages Gemini 2.0 capabilities ().
  (see https://x.com/kwindla/status/1870974144831275410)

• Added DailyTransport.send_dtmf() to send dial-out DTMF tones.

• Added DailyTransport.sip_call_transfer() to forward SIP and PSTN calls to another address or number. For example, transfer a SIP call to a different SIP address or transfer a PSTN phone number to a different PSTN phone number.

• Added DailyTransport.sip_refer() to transfer incoming SIP/PSTN calls from outside Daily to another SIP/PSTN address.

• Added an auto_mode input parameter to ElevenLabsTTSService. auto_mode is set to True by default. Enabling this setting disables the chunk schedule and all buffers, which reduces latency.

• Added KoalaFilter which implement on device noise reduction using Koala Noise Suppression.
  (see https://picovoice.ai/platform/koala/)

• Added CerebrasLLMService for Cerebras integration with an OpenAI-compatible interface. Added foundational example 14k-function-calling-cerebras.py.

• Pipecat now supports Python 3.13. We had a dependency on the audioop package which was deprecated and now removed on Python 3.13. We are now using audioop-lts (https://github.com/AbstractUmbra/audioop) to provide the same functionality.

• Added timestamped conversation transcript support:

  • New TranscriptProcessor factory provides access to user and assistant transcript processors.
  • UserTranscriptProcessor processes user speech with timestamps from transcription.
  • AssistantTranscriptProcessor processes assistant responses with LLM context timestamps.
  • Messages emitted with ISO 8601 timestamps indicating when they were spoken.
  • Supports all LLM formats (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google) via standard message format.
  • New examples: 28a-transcription-processor-openai.py, 28b-transcription-processor-anthropic.py, and 28c-transcription-processor-gemini.py.

• Add support for more languages to ElevenLabs (Arabic, Croatian, Filipino, Tamil) and PlayHT (Afrikans, Albanian, Amharic, Arabic, Bengali, Croatian, Galician, Hebrew, Mandarin, Serbian, Tagalog, Urdu, Xhosa).

Changed

• PlayHTTTSService uses the new v4 websocket API, which also fixes an issue where text inputted to the TTS didn't return audio.

• The default model for ElevenLabsTTSService is now eleven_flash_v2_5.

• OpenAIRealtimeBetaLLMService now takes a model parameter in the constructor.

• Updated the default model for the OpenAIRealtimeBetaLLMService.

• Room expiration (exp) in DailyRoomProperties is now optional (None) by default instead of automatically setting a 5-minute expiration time. You must explicitly set expiration time if desired.

Deprecated

• AWSTTSService is now deprecated, use PollyTTSService instead.

Fixed

• Fixed token counting in GoogleLLMService. Tokens were summed incorrectly (double-counted in many cases).

• Fixed an issue that could cause the bot to stop talking if there was a user interruption before getting any audio from the TTS service.

• Fixed an issue that would cause ParallelPipeline to handle EndFrame incorrectly causing the main pipeline to not terminate or terminate too early.

• Fixed an audio stuttering issue in FastPitchTTSService.

• Fixed a BaseOutputTransport issue that was causing non-audio frames being processed before the previous audio frames were played. This will allow, for example, sending a frame A after a TTSSpeakFrame and the frame A will only be pushed downstream after the audio generated from TTSSpeakFrame has been spoken.

• Fixed a DeepgramSTTService issue that was causing language to be passed as an object instead of a string resulting in the connection to fail.
