The default model for OpenAILLMService and AzureLLMService was still set
to gpt-4o. Restored it to gpt-4.1. Also, removed hardcoded gpt-4o/gpt-4o-mini
model references from examples so they pick up the new default.
Move the warning helper into AIService as _warn_init_param_moved_to_settings.
It now uses type(self).__name__ to produce messages like
"Use settings=AnthropicLLMService.Settings(model=...)" instead of the raw
settings class name "AnthropicLLMSettings(model=...)". Callers no longer need
to pass the settings class explicitly.
Replace direct references to settings class names (e.g. `FooSettings`) with the nested `Settings` alias form throughout all 87 service files:
- Type annotations: `Settings`
- Runtime code: `self.Settings`
- Docstrings: `ServiceClass.Settings`
- Cross-file inheritance: `ParentService.Settings`
This makes the `Settings` alias the canonical way to reference a service's settings, keeping only the class definition and alias assignment as the remaining hits for each raw settings class name.
* Add ServiceSwitcherStrategyFailover for automatic error-based service switching
Introduce a strategy hierarchy: ServiceSwitcherStrategy (base) →
ServiceSwitcherStrategyManual (handles ManuallySwitchServiceFrame) →
ServiceSwitcherStrategyFailover (adds error-based failover). ServiceSwitcher
now defaults to ServiceSwitcherStrategyManual with strategy_type optional.
Non-fatal ErrorFrames are forwarded to the strategy via handle_error().
* Move metadata request into _set_active_if_available
Requesting metadata is part of making a service active, so it belongs
alongside setting _active_service and firing on_service_switched. This
removes the duplicate queue_frame calls from ServiceSwitcher push_frame
and process_frame.
DailyTransportClient.start_transcription() accepted a settings
parameter but always used self._params.transcription_settings
instead, silently discarding any custom settings passed by callers.
Change transcription_settings to Optional[DailyTranscriptionSettings]
defaulting to None. The default settings are now applied at the call
site when transcription is started, and start_transcription receives
the serialized settings dict directly.
Use CustomVideoSource/CustomVideoTrack for the default camera output instead of
VirtualCameraDevice, mirroring how audio already uses CustomAudioSource/CustomAudioTrack.
Add support for custom video destinations (register_video_destination, add/remove
custom video tracks, routing in write_video_frame) so multiple video tracks can be
published simultaneously.
* Add system_instruction parameter to run_inference
Allow callers to provide a custom system instruction directly when calling
run_inference, without having to construct provider-specific context objects.
For OpenAI, the instruction is prepended as a system message (preserving
existing messages). For Anthropic, Google, and AWS Bedrock, it overrides the
single system field with a warning when an existing system instruction is
present in the context.
* Use system_instruction parameter in _generate_summary
Pass the summarization prompt via run_inference's system_instruction
parameter instead of embedding it as a system message in the context.
* Add changelog for #3968
Constructor/settings system_instruction now takes priority over the
context system message. Previously the context value would overwrite
the constructor value on every call. Warn when both are set.
