Smart Endpointing

After the actualization of the page. It has no "OFF" option. This Smart Endpointing is not available for others languages. So my clients are having serious problems right now. I need some assistance https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1374794582424031272/1374794582633742346/2025-05-21_130821.png?ex=682f58ba&is=682e073a&hm=029d804423f18e7bef6bb49ecb1697d7c39ffb5b9082791856a3cd8566bea243&

Currently, the "Off" option for Smart Endpointing is no longer available—only "Vapi" and "LiveKit" are supported, with LiveKit limited to English. For non-English languages, you must use "Vapi" and cannot fully disable smart endpointing. As a workaround, you can fine-tune the assistant's responsiveness by adjusting the
waitSeconds
parameter in your `startSpeakingPlan`:
Copy code
json
"startSpeakingPlan": {
  "waitSeconds": 1.0, // Adjust as needed for your use case
  "smartEndpointingPlan": { "provider": "vapi" }
}
If this does not meet your needs, consider reaching out to Vapi support for further assistance or to request restoration of the "Off" option.

Currently, the "Off" option for Smart Endpointing has been removed, and only "Vapi" (for non-English) and "LiveKit" (for English) are available. If your clients are experiencing issues due to this change, the best immediate action is to contact Vapi support directly and describe your use case and language requirements. You can also monitor the [Vapi changelog](https://docs.vapi.ai/changelog) for any updates regarding endpointing options or expanded language support.

Thank you for your quick response. But, the setting is configured to Livekit automatically. So, the operation will break apart. This cause a lot of frustration and my clients are disappointed.
Even doing what you told me to do. The call aint clean any more.
