Research direction

Start by reviewing Subtitle Edit's exposed audio playback, waveform, and plugin APIs, then check whether microphone input and WAV output are available to plugins. Done means establishing whether synchronized subtitle timing and voice recording are feasible, and documenting the required plugin scope or limitations.

Description

Since you have audio interface in SE would it be possible to include audio-record feature to wav file?

At the moment I do voiceover narrations of videos

So I
(a) make srt subtitle file where subtitle location is also timing spots for where I want narration
(b) use audacity srt2label to convert srt to audacity labels
(c) in audacity open the label (old srt) file and record audio at the timespots marked by the labels
then the saved wav file of voiceover narration can be muxed into video along with subtitles

but it would be nice to be able to do both subtitle srt file and voiceover narration wav file
at same time since they ultimately end up at same times in videos

since SE has audio playback features and waveforms display
I wondered if SE could have a button to record audio from a microphone as you record subtitles

does SE have the necessary audio functions defined (imported) and exposed to
be able to make a plugin of this voice-recording

Thanks for any info
