Differences between old and current FAVE-extract outputs (error accessing newly pulled formant files)

[thealk]

Just updated bigbro9uk to include newest formant files... when running plotmish encountered following indexError (this is running on an older version of plotmish that has been working fine all day):

McGills-MacBook-Pro:plotmish mcgillLing$ python plotmish.py /Users/mcgillLing/3_MLML/Big\ Brother/bigbro9uk/data/formants_full /Users/mcgillLing/3_MLML/Big\ Brother/wavs -k Lisa

Can you see what file is loading in plotmish when you get this?

[thealk]

Yep, it's the first ep file.

[thealk]

Just tried with another speaker to be sure; same problem - crashes at first episode.

[msonderegger]

is this the latest plotmish? not sure if this would matter, but you need the annotator in the call. This works for me:

python plotmish.py ~/bigbro/bigbro9uk/data/formants_full/ ~/bigbro/clipLinks/ ms -k ep90

[thealk]

no i hadn't pulled the newest plotmish - if it's ready to go i'll try that

[msonderegger]

yup, it works now.

[thealk]

same error but if it's working for you it must be something on my end. stay tuned.

[thealk]

keyword ep90 works for me... it seems to be certain episodes. ep80 also works, as well as ep8 (so episodes80-89), but ep0, ep02, ep03, ep10.... etc do not work. I haven't been able to figure out what it is about some of the files that's causing it to crash yet but if you have thoughts let me know. I'll continue with the dru and a subset of the eps for now...

[mishaschwartz]

They're all working for me. Which computer are you running it on? I can try to screen share in and see if there's something local that's screwing things up if you want.

[thealk]

I was running it on my own but i just tried running it with the ep clips on parmesan and same problem...

[thealk]

parmesan:plotmish mlml$ python plotmish.py /Users/mlml/bigbro9uk/data/formants_full /Users/mlml/bbFiles/clips/ep tk -k Lisa

(dru works fine)

Ok the problem is that they updated FAVE-extract and I used the new version to extract some of the ep files. The output for new FAVE-extract is slightly different so the columns don't line up. I'm going to make a quick fix for now and then I'll make a more permanent fix later. I'll comment and close this when the quick fix is going so that you can carry on with annotation.

[mishaschwartz]

Never mind, turns out the new fave-extract leaves out some crucial things like preceding and following segment as well. I think it'll actually be faster if we re-extract the formants with the old fave-align for our purposes now and we can figure out how we want to deal with this long term later.

[msonderegger]

Good catch -- that's annoying of them to change the output format. What you suggest sounds good -- could you do the re-extraction with old fave-extract?

(Less important: any idea why I'm not getting the same error as Thea on my machine when I do the same call?)
