The +d1 option will create bullets that contain the media filename within them. Otherwise, bullets rely on @Media header to tell them the name of the media file.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">There is also a CHAT2PRAAT command that will convert CHAT .cha file into PRAAT . textGrid file.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">The error message "Can't locate media file or recognize media format" means that media file specified does not exist on the hard disk. Make sure that the filename on hard disk matches exactly the name specified in @Media header or inside extended bullets that are created with +d1 option. Look for some hidden character(s) or space characters in the media filename. If your computer hides file extensions of common file types as both Mac and Windows PC do, then the filename on hard disk might not match.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">If you have more questions, then please email them directly to me <a href="mailto:spektor@andrew.cmu.edu" class="">spektor@andrew.cmu.edu</a>.

When I run kwal, the output does not contain bullet points but only timestamps. Last time I asked the same question, I was told to include +d +o@Media +f. This is slightly inconvenient for my purpose, because when I'm extracting the target utterances from multiple .cha files, it seems that separate output files are generated for each .cha input file. Is there a way to get all the utterances (from different transcripts) on a single file or present them on a single screen, so that I can send them to Praat all at once?</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Also, in the output files when I tried sending an utterance to Praat, I get an error message "<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 13px; text-align: center;" class="">Can't locate media file or recognize media format" even though the corresponding mp3 file is in the same folder as the transcript.
