To use SmallWebRTCTransport, install the required dependencies:

```bash
# For audio-only pipelines
uv add "pipecat-ai[webrtc]"

# For pipelines with video support
uv add "pipecat-ai[webrtc-video]"
```

<Note>
The `webrtc` extra provides audio and basic video support via `aiortc`. The `webrtc-video` extra adds OpenCV support for using `SmallWebRTCTransport` with video.
</Note>

<Warning>
`opencv-python-headless` will be removed from the `webrtc` extra in 2.0.0. Video pipelines using `SmallWebRTCTransport` should start installing the new `webrtc-video` extra (`pipecat-ai[webrtc-video]`) instead.
</Warning>
