Training on a custom dataset

[korakoe]

Hello, I was reading the training instructions (and the prepare dataset scripts) and I don't understand how you'd create and use custom datasets with this model.

@korakoe

you can skip lhotse download and lhotse prepare, but you must prepare the lhoste manifests files like https://github.com/lhotse-speech/lhotse/blob/master/lhotse/recipes/libritts.py#L84

more examples: https://github.com/lhotse-speech/lhotse/tree/master/lhotse/recipes

Is this used for transcribing? You can just use whisper to transcribe most languages. Then convert it into hdf5 file and texts and feed it via dynamic batch samppler
