• Screeching white sound coming while playing audio as a raw stream

  27 avril 2020, par Sri Nithya Sharabheshwarananda

  I. Background

  



  

  1. I am trying to make an application which helps to match subtitles to the audio waveform very accurately at the waveform level, at the word level or even at the character level.

  


  2. The audio is expected to be Sanskrit chants (Yoga, rituals etc.) which are extremely long compound words [ example - aṅganyā-sokta-mātaro-bījam is traditionally one word broken only to assist reading ]

  


  3. The input transcripts / subtitles might be roughly in sync at the sentence/verse level but surely would not be in sync at the word level.

  


  4. The application should be able to figure out points of silence in the audio waveform, so that it can guess the start and end points of each word (or even letter/consonant/vowel in a word), such that the audio-chanting and visual-subtitle at the word level (or even at letter/consonant/vowel level) perfectly match, and the corresponding UI just highlights or animates the exact word (or even letter) in the subtitle line which is being chanted at that moment, and also show that word (or even the letter/consonant/vowel) in bigger font. This app's purpose is to assist learning Sanskrit chanting.

  


  5. It is not expected to be a 100% automated process, nor 100% manual but a mix where the application should assist the human as much as possible.

  


  



  II. Following is the first code I wrote for this purpose, wherein

  



  

  1. First I open a mp3 (or any audio format) file,

  


  2. Seek to some arbitrary point in the timeline of the audio file // as of now playing from zero offset

  


  3. Get the audio data in raw format for 2 purposes - (1) playing it and (2) drawing the waveform.

  


  4. Playing the raw audio data using standard java audio libraries

  


  



  III. The problem I am facing is, between every cycle there is screeching sound.

  



  

  • Probably I need to close the line between cycles ? Sounds simple, I can try.

  


  • But I am also wondering if this overall approach itself is correct ? Any tip, guide, suggestion, link would be really helpful.

  


  • Also I just hard coded the sample-rate etc ( 44100Hz etc. ), are these good to set as default presets or it should depend on the input format ?

• How to make your plugin multilingual – Introducing the Piwik Platform

  29 octobre 2014, par Thomas Steur — Development

  This is the next post of our blog series where we introduce the capabilities of the Piwik platform (our previous post was Generating test data – Introducing the Piwik Platform). This time you’ll learn how to equip your plugin with translations. Users of your plugin will be very thankful that they can use and translate the plugin in their language !

  Getting started

  In this post, we assume that you have already set up your development environment and created a plugin. If not, visit the Piwik Developer Zone where you’ll find the tutorial Setting up Piwik and other Guides that help you to develop a plugin.

  Managing translations

  Piwik is available in over 50 languages and comes with many translations. The core itself provides some basic translations for words like “Visitor” and “Help”. They are stored in the directory /lang. In addition, each plugin can provide its own translations for wordings that are used in this plugin. They are located in /plugins/*/lang. In those directories you’ll find one JSON file for each language. Each language file consists in turn of tokens that belong to a group.

  {
  
      "MyPlugin":{
  
          "BlogPost": "Blog post",
  
          "MyToken": "My translation",
  
          "InteractionRate": "Interaction Rate"
  
      }
  
  }

  A group usually represents the name of a plugin, in this case “MyPlugin”. Within this group, all the tokens are listed on the left side and the related translations on the right side.

  Building a translation key

  As you will later see to actually translate a word or a sentence you’ll need to know the corresponding translation key. This key is built by combining a group and a token separated by an underscore. You can for instance use the key MyPlugin_BlogPost to get a translation of “Blog post”. Defining a new key is as easy as adding a new entry to the “MyPlugin” group.

  Providing default translations

  If a translation cannot be found then the English translation will be used as a default. Therefore, you should always provide a default translation in English for all keys in the file en.json (ie, /plugins/MyPlugin/lang/en.json).

  Adding translations for other languages

  This is as easy as creating new files in the lang subdirectory of your plugin. The filename consists of a 2 letter ISO 639-1 language code completed by the extension .json. This means German translations go into a file named de.json, French ones into a file named fr.json. To see a list of languages you can use have a look at the /lang directory.

  Reusing translations

  As mentioned Piwik comes with quite a lot of translations. You can and should reuse them but you are supposed to be aware that a translation key might be removed or renamed in the future. It is also possible that a translation key was added in a recent version and therefore is not available in older versions of Piwik. We do not currently announce any of such changes. Still, 99% of the translation keys do not change and it is therefore usually a good idea to reuse existing translations. Especially when you or your company would otherwise not be able to provide them. To find any existing translation keys go to Settings => Translation search in your Piwik installation. The menu item will only appear if the development mode is enabled.

  Translations in PHP

  Use the Piwik::translate() function to translate any text in PHP. Simply pass any existing translation key and you will get the translated text in the language of the current user in return. The English translation will be returned in case none for the current language exists.

  $translatedText = Piwik::translate('MyPlugin_BlogPost');

  Translations in Twig Templates

  To translate text in Twig templates, use the translate filter.

  {{ 'MyPlugin_BlogPost'|translate }}

  Contributing translations to Piwik

  Did you know you can contribute translations to Piwik ? In case you want to improve an existing translation, translate a missing one or add a new language go to Piwik Translations and sign up for an account. You won’t need any knowledge in development to do this.

  Advanced features

  Of course there are more useful things you can do with translations. For instance you can use placeholders like %s in your translations and you can use translations in JavaScript as well. In case you want to know more about those topics check out our Internationalization guide. Currently, this guide only covers translations but we will cover more topics like formatting numbers and handling currencies in the future.

  Congratulations, you have learnt how to make your plugin multilingual !

  If you have any feedback regarding our APIs or our guides in the Developer Zone feel free to send it to us.
