I am on mac and am working on a project in which my program shoud convert a .mp3 file into a .wav file and than get text from that file (basic speech recognition). For converting a .mp3 file into a .wav file I am using ffmpeg library. I have installed both ffmpeg and ffprobe libraryies using pip and than using homebrew so I have them installed in a folder.
This is my code:
import speech_recognition
from pydub import AudioSegment
from os import path
#get text from original voice file-------------------------------------------------
sound = AudioSegment.from_mp3("/path/to/file.mp3")
sound.export("/output/path/file.wav", format="wav")
file_audio = speech_recognition.AudioFile('/output/path/file.wav')
r = speech_recognition.Recognizer()
with file_audio as source:
audio_text = r.record(source)
word = r.recognize_google(audio_text)
And this is the error i get: FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'ffprobe'
