"praat" comes to my mind, which includes transcription utilities.
your target audience might be different, however.


and
$ apt-cache search transcript | grep -i speech
transcriber - transcribe speech data using an integrated editor
$

i don't use any of these, so i don't know how big the overlap is.


I didn't know praat, it is indeed targeting a scientific audience.

Transcriber has a few issues, I understand the last upstream version is 
from 2005 and it doesn't work well with pulseaudio (for me it plays only 
noise).


I found another simple program called gtranscribe, without a waveform. 
Generally speaking I think there is a lack of good transcription 
utilities that are not intended for phonetic/scientific work.


Best regards,
Gabor

Hello, Gabor and Ross,

I would be happy to take a look at this. Unfortunately, I am quite busy
at the moment so I can't promise much this week.

I have cc'd you because you did not say whether you are subscribed to
the Multimedia list. I have also copied in the RFS bug so that other
potential sponsors see this and take over if they are looking for
something to do :-)

Regards,

Ross

I can review the package and offer my comments in the meantime.
Disclaimer: I am not Debian Developer or Debian Maintainer.

Gabor,

Your package is not lintian-clean, please investigate (lintian -EviI 
--pedantic) and fix what you can.


debian/control:
I think Section: sound would be more suitable than Section: gnome.
You can drop some version requirements, please run 'cme check dpkg'.
Latest Policy version is 4.1.0.
Please use https for the homepage address.

The Debian changelog for new packages is usually very simple. This 
should be enough:

parlatype (1.5.2-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Initial release (Closes: #868886)

 -- Gabor Karsay   Thu, 10 Aug 2017 17:43:18 +0200

debian/copyright should use the established short license names, i.e. 
GPL-3+ for "version 3 or later" and CC-BY-SA-4, not CCBYSA-4. They are 
listed in the format specification.
For the CC licenses, I think it is not enough to just refer to a web 
page, as the terms must be readable offline.

See if any http URL can be changed to https in this file, too.

In debian/rules, based on my testing, I can tell these two lines are not 
needed:

DPKG_EXPORT_BUILDFLAGS = 1
include /usr/share/dpkg/buildflags.mk

Otherwise, the package looks very good to me.


With best regards,
Juhani

Request for sponsoring Parlatype -- audio player for transcription

2017-08-24 Thread Gabor Karsay

Dear Debian Multimedia Maintainers,

I'm looking for a reviewer or sponsor of my package Parlatype which is a 
minimal audio player that helps you to transcribe speeches, interviews, 
lyrics etc. It's based on GStreamer and GTK+.


It shows the waveform of the audio and I am not aware of any other 
comparable tool in Debian that does that. A similar program is 
Play-it-slowly, but Parlatype offers helpers for transcription, like 
timestamps (drag'n'drop), rewind on pause etc.


Just to clarify: I'm also the upstream author. I filed already ITP and 
RFS bugs here:


ITP: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=868886
RFS: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=867727

I was not aware of the multimedia packaging team before, my first intent 
was to maintain it myself, i.e. not in a team. I hope that somebody from 
this team is interested and can give me some guidance how to proceed.


Thank you
Gabor Karsay
