trying to use aeneas an python -errors reading mp3/wav audiofile not supported

[jossiekat]

from aeneas.executetask import ExecuteTask from aeneas.task import Task

create Task object

config_string = u"task_language=eng|is_text_type=plain|os_task_file_format=json" task = Task(config_string=config_string) task.audio_file_path_absolute =os.path.abspath("./a.mp3") task.text_file_path_absolute = os.path.abspath("./a.txt") task.sync_map_file_path_absolute = "syncmap.json"

process Task

ExecuteTask(task).execute()

output sync map to file

task.output_sync_map_file()

os : mac catalina python 3.8

got an error
