[Arsen Chaloyan]

Amazon Web Services (AWS) Transcribe Speech Recognition Plugin 1.6.0 to the UniMRCP Server (UMS) has been released.

The plugin is based on the following components:

• UniMRCP Server 1.7.0
• AWS SDK 1.9.181
• Libevent 2.1.9

The binaries are currently available for the following Linux distributions:

• Red Hat / CentOS 7 (unimrcp-transcribe-1.7.8-1.el7.x86_64.rpm)
• Red Hat / CentOS 8 (unimrcp-transcribe-1.7.8-1.el8.x86_64.rpm)
• Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (unimrcp-transcribe_1.7.8-bionic_amd64.deb)
• Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (unimrcp-transcribe_1.7.8-focal_amd64.deb)

This release provides a few improvements and fixes.

The detailed list of changes introduced in this release follows.

New Features

• Output license and maintenance expiration dates to status files, if/when applicable.
• Added support for different tag formats 'default' and 'semantics/json'.
• Allow format and tag-format to be overridden per recognition request.
• Set the SSL security level to 1 by default. This setting applies to the use of the license server on Ubuntu 20.04 and does not affect other supported distributions.

Fixed Problems

• Fixed a possible memory leak occurred when two file entries (waveforms and/or RDRs) have the same creation time, which is a very rare occasion not involved in the regular operation.

Configuration Parameters

• Added a new attribute 'tag-format' to the element 'results'.
• Added a new attribute 'security-level' to the element 'license-server'.

Miscellaneous

• Updated the Usage Guide to reflect the changes introduced in this release.
