audio_split example #1021

Open Evilmaax opened 5 days ago

Hey guys, right now Im splitting my audio into channels using ffmpeg and numpy, after that I send to BatchedInferencePipeline.Transcribe for transcription.

But I was looking at transcribe.py class and found a method named audio_split. Does it do the same process of separating audio into channels? Cant find any documentation or usage of it. Also, didn't get why segments should be passed as parameter since segments are generated after transcription process.

To information of someone who can reach this by having the same question, I went deeper and found that I was misinterpreting the code.

What this function will really do is receive the audio and the transcribed segments and from its segments start and end time split the audio into corresponding chunks.

I believe this should be well documented.
