# SpeedBias

The `SpeedBias` parameter specifies whether to prioritize accuracy or speed. Allowing Media Server more time to process the audio can result in better accuracy.

TIP: When using the new speech-to-text models introduced in IDOL 23.2, OpenText recommends setting `SpeedBias=Live` or `SpeedBias=6`. In most cases, the other values use significantly more memory for negligible improvements in accuracy.

Set this parameter to one of the following values:

- `Live` - you must specify this value to process live streams
- `6` - prioritize speed
- `5`
- `4`
- `3` - balanced
- `2`
- `1` - prioritize accuracy

Type: | String
Default: |
Required: | Yes
Configuration Section: | TaskName
Example: | `SpeedBias=6`
