hello,

I'm using Scintilla as a wxPython widget with great pleasure.
I now have an application where I want to make notes during a conversation,
but also want to record the speech during that conversation.
I'm using Scintilla as a wxPython widget for editing and PyAudio for the speech recording,
until so far everything works fine.

Here the problem part:
I need to synchronize the typed text with the sound during playback.
So if I click somewhere in the sound recording,
the line of text, typed that moment should be highlighted.
And vise versa, if the cursor in the text is moved and some special key is pressed,
the sound starting 10 or 20seconds earlier should be playbacked.

I though of adding bookmarks (because these are fixed in the text), and keep a list of bookmarks and sound pointers.
This idea should work, but there are only 31 bookmarks.

Any other suggestions ?

thanks,
Stef Mientki
That sounds like a very specialized type of thing,
Well from an application point of view,
with the current netbooks,
this looks like a perfect tool for any conversation or meeting.
which only the few people with experience with wxPython, PyAudio, and Scintilla could help you with...

I was afraid of that too, so I dropped the question in several places,
and the writer of Scintilla himself came with the perfect answer.

cheers,Stef
But you might try having a dictionary with notes and associated times, or just give each note a four-digit ID number at the beginning of it when it's entered and use that in the dictionary (to keep keys shorter). Or you could just do a little hack and increase the number of bookmarks allowed (seeing as source is available) :p
