The option parameter does not affect the VAD process.

After #856, the VAD-related option paramter does not affect the vad results at all.

options: Optional[NamedTuple] = None,

I believe self.options isn't used during VAD. Should we modify VadOptions， and make it take effect here?

I think you are confused between VadOptions (which is a silero VAD related parameter) and options variable (that is used to initialize the inference pipeline with default transcription options).

Batched version of faster whisper does not use silero VAD at the moment, hence the VadOptions variable is not needed for VAD.
If required, it is possible to make the vad_onset and vad_offset user configurable for tuning the VAD model in batched inference.

Thank you for your response! I just noticed the difference.

I think it would be beneficial to make vad_onset and vad_offset user-configurable. This flexibility would allow users to adjust these parameters according to their specific data requirements.

I may take a PR for this issue soon.
