HTK 3.4.1

HTK the HTK toolkit is required for FAVE-align to work. Its installation instructions are operating system specific, so see the relevant wiki page for your system.

• [OS X](HTK on OS X)
• [Windows](HTK on Windows)

Some aspects of downloading and installation are the same across systems.

Download HTK

You'll need to register (free) with HTK to download it. Visit http://htk.eng.cam.ac.uk/register.shtml to register, and they will e-mail you a password.

After that, visit http://htk.eng.cam.ac.uk/download.shtml, and download the HTK source code appropriate for your operating system.

Fixing HTK Source

In the htk directory, navigate to htk/HTKLib, and open the file HRec.c in a plain text editor. Find the line 1650 which reads

if (dur<=0 && labid != splabid) HError(8522,"LatFromPaths: Align have dur<=0 ");

labid in this line should be changed to labpr. It should look like this:

if (dur<=0 && labpr != splabid) HError(8522,"LatFromPaths: Align have dur<=0 ");
