Is there a way whisper can auto-detect the language?

[punksterlabs]

I am on a use case where two languages could be used during recording and whisper defaults to the language that is set in the settings.

Another idea would be to allow the selection of the language on the recording controls instead of in the general settings? That would be easier to implement, and would give multilingual users quick access to the selected language

I figured out that if you leave the language blank, it will just auto detect it what works very well.
