• Google Speech API returns empty result for some FLAC files, and not for the others although they have same codec and sample rate

  15 March 2021, by Chad

  Below code is what I used to make request for transcription.

  


  import io
from google.cloud import speech_v1p1beta1 as speech
def transcribe_file(speech_file):
    """Transcribe the given audio file."""

    client = speech.SpeechClient()

    encoding = speech.RecognitionConfig.AudioEncoding.FLAC
    if os.path.splitext(speech_file)[1] == ".wav":
        encoding = speech.RecognitionConfig.AudioEncoding.LINEAR16
    with io.open(speech_file, "rb") as audio_file:
        content = audio_file.read()

    audio = speech.RecognitionAudio(content=content)
    config = speech.RecognitionConfig(
        encoding=speech.RecognitionConfig.AudioEncoding.FLAC,
        sample_rate_hertz=32000,
        language_code="ja-JP",
        max_alternatives=3,
        enable_word_time_offsets=True,
        enable_automatic_punctuation=True,
        enable_word_confidence=True,
    )

    response = client.recognize(config=config, audio=audio)
    #print(speech_file, "Recognition Done")
    return response


  


  As I wrote in title, the results of response has empty list for some files, and not for some files.
They have same sample rate and codec(32000, FLAC)

  


  Below is the result of ffprobe -i "AUDIOFILE" -show_streams for one of each cases.

  


  Left one is empty one. The only difference is duration of file.

  


  How can I get non empty results?

  


  Result of ffprobe

  


  Edit:

  


  Result of ffprobe show stream show format

  


  Something not captured in one screen

  


  Sadly, re-mux didn't work.

  


  I used ffmpeg-git-20210225

• Error with LocalAudioFile(file) returns OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory

  5 March 2016, by beriukay

  Much like the question here http://developer.echonest.com/forums/thread/3843#reply, I am having the following error:

  File
  "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/echonest/remix/audio.py", line
  944, in init
  sampleRate=sampleRate, numChannels=numChannels) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/echonest/remix/audio.py", line

  self.load() File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/echonest/remix/audio.py", line

  line 91, in ffmpeg
  close_fds=(not win) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 710, in init
  errread, errwrite) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 1327, in _execute_child
  raise child_exception OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory

  I checked input and output file permissions, made sure that both files and all related file paths existed, and that I have all the relevant python tools installed. The first clue is that Subprocess.py is having trouble. Looking at ffmpeg.py on line 88, I started playing around with the Popen function call to see how and why it was misbehaving.

  Solution:

  After messing around with the ffmpeg.py file, I piped the input to the shell (shell=True instead of shell=False), which raised the following error:

  check raise Run timeError(ffmpeg_install_instructions) RuntimeError: en-ffmpeg not found! Please make sure ffmpeg is installed and create a link as follows: sudo ln -s which ffmpeg /usr/local/bin/en-ffmpeg Alternatively, import echonest.remix.support.ffmpeg and modify ffmpeg.FFMPEG to name the appropriate binary.

  So, to finalize the solution, you need to get the binary from https://ffmpeg.org/download.html#build-linux, which in Ubuntu 14.04 means you just need to:

  sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mc3man/trusty-media
  
  sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
  
  sudo apt-get install ffmpeg
  
  sudo ln -s `which ffmpeg` /usr/local/bin/en-ffmpeg

  That should clear this problem right up.

• Mpeg Dash code having compilation issues and want to know what to do after the code is built and how to play the .mpd file generated

  11 April 2013, by niuuuu

  I'm trying to build the DashEncoder code which I downloaded from github https://github.com/slederer/DASHEncoder. Well, I followed all the instructions given in the how to compile dash file. installed Gpac n X264 and compiled both successfully. Then did make of Dashencoder and ran it as ./Dashencoder. But I found some issues in it. Got this log :

  and also one folder got created in my /opt/lampp/htdocs/tests_updates/sintel_300kbit.
  which has two types of files :
  27 files of .m4s extension
  1 file -sintelinit.mp4
  1 file- sintel_trailer_2k_480p24_300kbit.mp4 , which when played in vlc player played the video bt no audio! &

  1 file- sintel_trailer_2k_480p24_300kbit.h264 which cannot be opened.

  No .mpd file was created.

  Also I want to know aft creating that .mpd file how will i be able to test it on my android client say media player.

  I am damn confused with all this happening. Please help.
