Could not locate cudnn_ops_infer64_8.dll. Please make sure it is in your library path!

Command:

whisperx "audio/test.mp3" --model "large-v3" --language "en"

Error:

Could not locate cudnn_ops_infer64_8.dll. Please make sure it is in your library path!

Took a look in .venv\Lib\site-packages\torch\lib and saw cudnn_ops_infer64_9.dll instead of cudnn_ops_infer64_8.dll

I originally used these commands to set up whisperX today:

py -3.10 -m venv venv
.\venv\Scripts\python.exe -m pip install --upgrade pip wheel setuptools
pip install torch torchvision torchaudio --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu121
pip install git+https://github.com/m-bain/whisperx.git

After seeing the error I ran:

pip uninstall torch torchaudio torchvision
pip install torch==2.2.2 torchvision==0.17.2 torchaudio==2.2.2 --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu121

and cudnn_ops_infer64_8.dll is in torch so the original command runs now

It could be the new ctranslate2 update that bonked things. Downgrading ctranslate2 fixed this issue for me.

I just used this command:
pip install ctranslate2==4.4.0

I had a different issue, but it was solved using this same command. Thank you so much!
