Can you pls give me an explanation?
I also tried to reinstall perl as it was highlighted in another (closed) issue but it doesn't work

Thanks a lot!

It looks a lot like an issue I had while trying to run and install this project, which was resolved by installing 'perl', although I can see you have already installed it.

You can take a look at my full windows installation instructions here and see if they help.

I was reading right now your guide, it's very helpful!
I have a question: did you install perl with pip or in another way?

Although the error seems to be related to ctc-forced-aligner. Do I need to reinstall it maybe?

[homelab-00]

Glad the guide's useful!

I have a question: did you install perl with pip or in another way?

I installed it (on my Windows 10 machine) using Strawberry Perl. Remember to make sure 'perl' has been correctly added to PATH. Since I'm using Strawberry Perl, my PATH includes these entries:

C:\Strawberry\c\bin
C:\Strawberry\perl\site\bin
C:\Strawberry\perl\bin

Although the error seems to be related to ctc-forced-aligner. Do I need to reinstall it maybe?

I'm pretty sure that ctc-forced-aligner is installed along with whisper-diarization.
However I think it's best to start over to have a clean sheet and be able to better isolate issues.

C:\Strawberry\c\bin
C:\Strawberry\perl\site\bin
C:\Strawberry\perl\bin

I downloaded perl from Strawberry Perl site as portable ZIP and added to PATH all the directories you mentioned but I still get the error

[homelab-00]

Try uninstalling/removing any existing 'perl' installations, reboot your pc, install Strawberry Perl using the installer rather than the portable zip, reboot again and give it another try.

Now it works!!
But I have a new problem: it seems that it doesn't actually transcribe my audio input, but a demo one (?)

Should I put my file in a specific folder?

UPDATE
Found the error, all works fine now. Thank you!!

I have the same problem, tried with bot diarize.py and diarize_parallel.py - what did you do to fix your initial problem? Was it uninstalling/installing Perl?

What kind of problem?
To sum up, I followed homelab-00's installation guide. My problem with perl was that I installed it using pip. You may try an installation by downloading it at its official site. So, uninstall all what you've installed so far and retry with a clean installation.

Let me know!

perl is no longer required
