Phoneme Timings or Timestamps for each word.... possible with MFA? #837

Open totomtornado opened 4 weeks ago

totomtornado commented 4 weeks ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Need Phoneme Timings...

Describe the solution you'd like I used Gentle before to get phoneme timestamps but it was hard to install and I only got it working on an Apple PC... I am looking for something I can put on my linux machine.

Describe alternatives you've considered Gentle before as stated...

Additional context This may be existing already in MFA but I was unable to really understand what kind of output MFA provides. Like I stated... I am in need of phoneme level timings for each word like I was able to get from Gentle in the past... if MFA or something else can do this... like maybe one of the suggestions here:

I would greatly appreciate being pointed in the right direction.... :)

MFA outputs word timing in the first TextGrid tier and phones of your choice in the second tier
