- aeneas forced aligner https://github.com/readbeyond/aeneas : currently used
- DSAlign forced aligner: might be worth trying
- mp3cat: licensed under the Unlicense from https://github.com/dmulholl/mp3cat
- make whole audiobook to one file
mp3cat *.mp3 -o "out.mp3"
(must be built from mp3cat.go) - convert book to 16khz
./convertMono.sh out.mp3
ebook-convert mybook.epub mybook.txt
ORpdftotext mybook.pdf out.txt
- manually delete chapter overview and copyright information from top of the book (can be improved with some NLP in the future)
./forcedAlign.sh in.wav in.txt
-> writes out.srt
