anki-slicer 0.3.1

Slice audio + subtitles and export to Anki via AnkiConnect

🎧 Anki‑Slicer

Anki‑Slicer is a utility that lets you take an audio file (MP3, WAV, etc.) plus two SRT subtitles (original + translation), preview and flag sentences you want to learn, and then export it into an Anki flashcard deck — fully synchronized with the audio.

It’s designed for language learners who want to build rich, sentence‑level listening cards with audio + text, all in just a few clicks. ✨ Features

⏯️ Precise adjustment of audio selection (no more clipped audio or extra sounds).
🕹 Slider & Time Display to seek anywhere in the audio.
🔎 Search subtitles (original, translation, or both) and jump through results.
📤 Export flagged items into Anki via AnkiConnect — creates cards automatically.

📦 Prerequisites

Python 3.9 or later
Anki with the AnkiConnect add‑on installed and running.
An audio file and two SRT files:
    Original transcript (same language as the audio).
    Translation of the original text.

💡 Tip: I personally use McWhisper (paid app) to generate accurate SRTs and export audio from YouTube or audio files. Other workflows are possible — e.g. extracting captions from YouTube, generating with whisper.AI, etc.

🛠 Tip

    Before using Anki-Slicer you might want to edit your translation SRT before loading:
        For example you can use AI to add explanations, grammar notes, transliterations etc. 
        This text appears on the answer side of the Anki card. Note that Anki uses HTML for formatting.
