Distil-Large-v2 quants
This is a repository of GGML quants for [distil-large-v2](https://huggingface.co/distil-whisper/distil-large-v2) (a Whisper-based transcription model), for use with whisper.cpp.
If you are looking for a program to run this model with, then I would recommend EasyWhisper UI, as it is user-friendly, has a GUI, and automates a lot of the hard stuff for you.

The F32 quant was taken from distil-whisper/distil-large-v2/ggml-large-32-2.fp32.en.bin, and the F16 quant was taken from distil-whisper/distil-large-v2/ggml-large-32-2.en.bin.
Questions you may have
Why do the "K-quants" not work for me?
My guess is that your GPU might be too old to recognize them, considering that I have gotten the same error on my GTX 1080. If you would like to run them regardless, you can try switching to CPU inference.
Are the K-quants "S", "M", or "L"?
The quantizer I was using was not specific about this, so I do not know about this either.
What program did you use to make these quants?
I used whisper.cpp v1.7.6 on Windows x64, leveraging CUDA 12.4.0.
One or multiple of the quants are not working for me.
Open a new discussion in the community tab about this, and I will look into the issue.
