text: good morning!  i have a call with Sarah yesterday and i put the video in this directory.  can you move it somewhere appropriate?


role: assistant

text:
Done.

Moved:
- `wittrock-2026-03-27.mp4` → `records/lawyers/wittrock/2026-03-27_call_with_sarah.mp4`

That seemed like the cleanest home for it. If you want, I can also make a short companion note in the same folder with call summary / follow-ups.


text:
so - there was a problem - it didn't seem to record her side of the call... so i'll need to fix that for next time.

but, i'd also like to generate a transcript from that file using voice id.  can you create a system for that?

<turn_aborted>
The user interrupted the previous turn on purpose. Any running unified exec processes may still be running in the background. If any tools/commands were aborted, they may have partially executed; verify current state before retrying.

text: python keeps crashing.  can you stop doing that and fix it?


text: I’m fixing the architecture instead of re-running the crashing path. First I’m checking the current scripts and then I’ll split transcription and voice-ID into separate processes.


text: I’ve split the pipeline. The main script is now a thin orchestrator, and transcription plus voice matching each run in separate helper processes. Next I’m doing a syntax check and a short-run test before touching the full call.


text: The short test passed. I’m running the full Sarah call now with split stereo and explicit channel labels, because the file only has one audible side. The voice-ID path is in place, but this specific recording doesn’t have enough signal on the other side to use it for both speakers.


text: I found a real bug in the full run: channel labels were being parsed as filesystem paths. That’s fixed. I’m rerunning the full call now.


text:
**Done**
- Split the pipeline so transcription and voice matching run in separate processes. Updated `scripts/transcribe_with_voice_id.py:1`, added `scripts/_sb_voice_match.py:1`, and kept `scripts/_fw_transcribe.py:1`.
- The crash path is gone. A short test passed, then the full Sarah call completed cleanly.
- Generated transcript files:
  - `records/lawyers/wittrock/2026-03-27_call_with_sarah.transcript.md:1`
  - `records/lawyers/wittrock/2026-03-27_call_with_sarah.transcript.json:1`
- Updated the workflow note in `records/analysis/2026-03-28_voice_id_transcript_workflow.md:1`.
- Current limitation: this recording only has audible speech on the left channel, so the transcript is one-sided; the output notes that the right channel is silent.

If you want, I can handle the next problem: a recording setup that actually captures both sides reliably.
