[annodex-users] annodex for recording and indexing speech

Good afternoon,

I'm checking annodex as the base of an application to record and index
speech (in order to replace analog tapes for hearings in a court). The
final result are sound files with the indication of who was the speaker
at the time.

My first prototype is building up to something like:

1) Record sound.
2) Convert sound file to Ogg/Vorbis or Ogg/Speex
3) Put the files in a apache with mod_annodex.
4) Have an app that allows listening to the sound stream and mark who
the speaker is.

Step 3 is needed because a judge may need to hear back a recording
during the hearing before it is indexed.

I've been able to setup apache with mod_annodex (it worked a lot better
once I understood that the .anx files on the filesystem shouldn't pass
through anxenc before). Congratulations for that one.

I'm looking for clients and indexing software for annodex streams.

So far I've used normal ogg players and the annodex firefox extension
(has some issues in ubuntu 5.10[1] - I'll try the svn one tomorrow). Any
suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
						João Miguel Neves

[1] - doesn't install (I needed to unpack the xpi and put the plug-in in
the right directory) and I never got sound out of it.
