Re: Re: Re: open praat in elan: LongSound file
Dear Han,<br>I'm working with video and sound-files which have an offset one to another. When I use "open selection in Praat", the program opens fine, but it forgets to add the offset and the selection that I see in Praat is exactly that amount of time too early that I have added in the offset during the synchronisation of video and audio. When I add the offset to the selection in Praat I end up at the selection I wanted to have originally. As this is tiring to do with many selections I had a search on the forum here. I thought of changing the "openpraat-v2" script, to add the offset in the line of the selection: Select... 'starttime' 'endtime'. But similar to the User who had initiated this topic, I cannot find the script. Neither in .elan_data nore in C:\Windows\Temp nore elsewhere (I have no C:\tmp or C:\temp; even the search option for "openpraat" doesn't find anything.). My ELAN is in C:\Program Files\ELAN 3.7.2\ so the path contains whitespaces. I copied the ELAN folder to C:\ and renamed the folder itself so it doesn't contain any whitespace. Running ELAN from there and choosing a selection still does not create a openpraat-script.<br>I would be very greatful if you could point me to a solution to one or both of the problems described: 1) missing offset 2) help me find the "openpraat" script for a workaround.<br>Best wishes,<br>Jan<br>

Hello again,<br>I found the openpraat.praat script in the following location: C:\Document and Settings\(username)\Local Settings\Temp . This is written in the Environment Variables ("TMP" and "TEMP"). The way I found it is: riht click on "My Computer" in the start menue; then "properties"; select the tab "Advanced"; then "Environment Variables".<br>It would be nice if the offset would be considered from the start though.<br>Kind regards,<br>Jan<br>
