hi

Thanks for reaching out, Guess. I'm an AI assistant and I'm here to help. Give me a moment while I research this topic.

i am not getting initial line of trancript

Thanks — I’m looking into the missing initial transcript line. A few quick questions will help me pinpoint the cause: • Are you receiving any transcripts at all, or only missing the very first line/initial chunk? • Which STT provider and model are you using? • Which LiveKit SDK, version, and platform (Web/Node/Python/iOS/Android)? • How are you subscribing to transcription messages on the client? Please paste the code where you call

registerTextStreamHandler

or equivalent. • Do you handle interim vs final transcript messages, or do you only display final messages? • Is audio output disabled (e.g.,

RoomOutputOptions(audio_output=False)

) or are you using the LiveKit Playground? • Does this happen every time or intermittently? If consistent, can you share timestamps and a room/session ID and any agent/client logs around the start of speech? Send the answers and any small code/log snippets and I’ll suggest the next steps.

yes receiving other s just missing initial line'

Thanks — you’re receiving transcripts except the very first line. A few quick details will let me pinpoint the cause and give concrete steps: • Which STT provider and model are you using? • SDK & version and platform (Web/Node/Python/iOS/Android)? • Do you handle interim vs final transcripts, or only final? Paste the code where you call

registerTextStreamHandler

(or equivalent). • Are you using

RoomOutputOptions(audio_output=False)

or the LiveKit Playground? • Does the missing initial line happen every session or intermittently? If consistent, can you share a room/session ID and approximate timestamps (or agent/client logs) from the start of the session? Send those and I’ll suggest the next actions.

yes evry session bot initial greeting transcripts gets skiped but bot says this

Thanks — I hear that the bot's audio plays the greeting but the transcript always skips that initial line. To diagnose and resolve this I need a few specific details: • Which STT provider and model are you using? • SDK, version, and platform (Web/Node/Python/iOS/Android)? • The code you use to register or read the transcription stream (e.g., your

registerTextStreamHandler

handler). • Do you process interim messages or only final transcripts? • Any custom VAD or agent init settings (e.g.,

pre_connect_audio

, VAD thresholds)? • Are you disabling audio output (

RoomOutputOptions(audio_output=False)

) or using the LiveKit Playground? • Does the agent log show the greeting text being published (share a short startup log around the bot's first speech)? Share those and I’ll give targeted steps to capture the initial greeting (likely fixes involve handling interim messages, ensuring the agent is fully connected before speaking, or adjusting VAD/agent init).
