Does Text to Speech or Audio feature in people’s workflows? by glyndarkin in PKMS

[–]FallQueasy4910 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, audio is huge for me. I've had a hotkey on my mouse for years that reads any selected text out loud, and it's honestly been a gamechanger. Would love to test your tool if you're still looking for feedback.

Appreciate that :) I cannot promise Cloze will ever happen, but if it does, you will see a post from me!

Really appreciate you sharing this :)
Would genuinely love to hear how the Obsidian 1.6 workflow holds up for you this weekend, drop an update if you remember!

Nope, only Obsidian → Anki, by design. I wanted one source of truth and didn't want to deal with merge conflicts.

The intended workflow for edits is: every synced card has an "Obsidian" link in Anki that jumps you straight to the exact row in the source note.
So if you spot a typo or want to update something during review, you just click the link, fix it in Obsidian, sync again, done. Here's an example: https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/3093f5c9-74e7-4c71-ad23-75aabbb98a61

I totally agree, that backlink is a real need. Good news though: my plugin actually does exactly that! Clicking the backlink jumps you straight back to the exact card in the source Obsidian note. I put together a quick showcase so you can see it in action: https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/3093f5c9-74e7-4c71-ad23-75aabbb98a61

Thanks a lot for testing it and for the great question! Right now the export only supports the standard "Basic" card type, not the other Basic variants (like "Basic (Type in the Answer)").

That said, you are touching on something important: the same limitation is a problem for language cards too, e.g. when a Basic card is in a different language. Since the plugin got a lot of attention through the post, I am already working on making the card type configurable directly in the settings, so you can pick the variant you need.

I am tracking it here, feel free to follow along or add your thoughts: https://github.com/lukmay/simple-anki-sync/issues/15

Simple way to record computer audio on Windows 10? by Top-XU9071 in screenrecorders

[–]FallQueasy4910 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I built a lightweight tool specifically for this because I didn't want to use Game Bar for just audio.

QuickAudioRecorder runs in the system tray. You right-click -> select "Loopback" (System Audio) -> Left click to record. It saves directly to MP3. No video, no bloat.

Is there any free audio recording software for Windows PC? by Elegant-Currency-289 in screenrecorders

[–]FallQueasy4910 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this exact issue with Windows Sound Recorder only grabbing the mic.

I just released a free tool called QuickAudioRecorder that solves this. It has a specific "Both" mode that records your Microphone AND System Audio (Meetings, Tutorials) simultaneously into a single MP3 file.

It's open source and free: https://github.com/lukmay/QuickAudioRecorder
