Misaligned output #269

Hello.

I am offering

  1. a plain text file with one sentence each line. UTF-8 No bom. German.
  2. an ogg file. German.

to aeneas, installed with the installer for windows.

My command

python -m aeneas.tools.execute_task "C:\Test03.ogg" "C:\Test03.txt" "task_language=deu|is_text_type=plain|os_task_file_format=srt" "C:\Test03.srt"

The output srt is misaligned without system(f.i. everything shifted by 5 seconds).

I changed task_language to english, just to see what happens.

The same result.

Conclusion: The language DEU does not exist or is not being used.

Also, I noticed several 00:21:15,360 --> 00:21:15,360 => inpoint = outpoint

Also interesting: https://aeneasweb.org/ works with the same files flawlessly.

Without sharing the 13k lines debug output, what is the likely reason?

Windows is not officially supported. There are known problems since 1.7.1, see e.g. https://github.com/readbeyond/aeneas/issues/190

The aeneas Web app runs on Linux, that explains why it works there.

Try installing aeneas on Vagrant/Docker. Maybe even the WSL for Windows 10 might work.

The wsl version worked. Very useful advice!
