praatalign's Issues

Can't find phonetizer file.

When using the universal phonetizer I am unable to locate the phonetizer file. Could you tell me exactly which file it is looking for?

System command failed

Hi,
I am trying to get aligner up and running. I did the necessary steps for the installation and when I try to align an interval, I get the following error in Praat:

As this error is rather unspecific, I have no clue what this could mean. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Numbers and symbols in dict

It seems that the script doesn't know what to do when dictionary entries contain numbers or IPA symbols, although some punctuation is fine. When using Align current interval, I get this error message:

HVite failed with the following error: ERROR [+8251] ReadLattice: Word 3: not in dict
ERROR [+3210] DoAlignment: ReadLattice failed
FATAL ERROR - Terminating program C:\htk\bin.win32\HVite.exe

System command failed + No log file

Hi,

I have downloaded the aligner and set up the aligner. I am using Mac Os Monterey.
Python2, Sox, HVite and HCopy can all be run on my terminal. But I still encountered the following problem, and I even couldn't found the log file although I have set it. Is there anything I can do? Thanks!

Error for Sound files that are aligned

Exported sound fragments can be aligned to a textgrid. When exporting this the aligner crashes because the sound file is not long enough. For now, just reopen the sound file and try again.

How to make ruleset work?

Hi , I try to make some English word delete pronunciation

Script crashes when trying to align files

When trying to align any file, I get the following error message:

I've attached all the the files that I've used and that have been generated here.
