I
think I have substudy working again on new Mac systems! But I'll need a technically-inclined tester to be sure.
If you're running Xcode 8 under OS X El Capitan or Sierra, I've made a pre-release version of substudy. To test it out,
see the instructions here, but replace the actual install command with:
Code: Select all
cargo install --vers 0.4.1-pre.1 substudy
This should produce a working copy of substudy. But please let me know if you encounter any issues with the auto-detection of character sets; it seems to be detecting certain very short UTF-8 fies as using a legacy central European encoding, and I don't know whether that will affect longer files. I suspect it won't, but I'd love independent confirmation.
In related good news, you may be able to get substudy working on Windows if you have your Rust compiler configured to use MSVC. But that's still an "experts only" possibility right now. If people are happy with this updated version of substudy, I'll make an official release and try to set up automatic binary builds so that you can just download it. (Of course, you'll still need to install ffmpeg.)

Thank you for your bug report about this! I think this is a case of missing MP3 metadata, and I'll look into fixing it when I get a moment.

Substudy spits out raw CSV files, which you can import into Anki using any deck model of your choice.
