Training the new wavegan on speech dataset about wavegan HOT 6 CLOSED

Sorry for the late reply. Was on vacation. This error is thrown by librosa when you don't have a suitable audio IO backend installed. If you are training on the spoken digits dataset, you should be able to add the flag --data_fastwav which will both get rid of this error and make training faster.

Can you tell me how to perform wavegan and specgan?
I am following the Read Me but can't execute, Do I need to import a dataset? What is the command?

from wavegan.

Sorry to bother you again. Actually, using that option I run into a format error.
I copy paste here to make the error clear:

"File format b'\x80\x00\x01\x00'... not understood."

I also tried to use the option --data_first_slice but it does not solve the error.

Hi there. This looks like perhaps a Python 2/3 compatibility issue. Or perhaps an issue with the way you are passing the file format via the command line. Can you tell me the line of code where this error is raised?

Hi, sorry for the delay.

Here the lines where the error is raised.

in loader.py line 128,
fast_wav=decode_fast_wav)

line 36, in decode_audio
_wav, _fs = librosa.core.load(fp, sr=fs, mono=False)

line 112, in load
with audioread.audio_open(os.path.realpath(path)) as input_file:

line 116, in audio_open
raise NoBackendError()

audioread.NoBackendError

You don't have a program installed that librosa can use to read audio files. Usually I install ffmpeg. more details: librosa/librosa#589
