## Extra dependency: Aeneas

[Aeneas](https://github.com/readbeyond/aeneas) is an open source tool that is used by this app under the hood to do the alignment.

**In order to use the app you need to install Aeneas on your computer.**

You can install it for [mac os x by downloading the `dmg` from this link](https://github.com/sillsdev/aeneas-installer/releases).

At a very high level under the hood Aeneas converts the text of the provided transcription into speech (`TTS`) and compares the waveform with the one of the original media (audio or video) to do the alignment.
