To upload a script for your Voiceover Studio project using a CSV file, you'll need to format it correctly. The CSV should include columns for the speaker, line, start time, and end time. Here's an example of how you can format your script:

speaker,line,start_time,end_time
Narrator,"Hello, little listeners! Welcome to the podcast where we explore the lives of extraordinary people whose words and ideas continue to inspire us. Tonight, we’re journeying back in time to meet Ibn Khaldun, a brilliant thinker who taught the world how to understand history and society. But tonight, he’s not alone—we’ll meet some fun and unexpected friends who joined him on his adventures. Snuggle up, close your eyes, and let’s begin.",0.00000,10.00000
Narrator,"Once upon a time, in the vibrant city of Tunis, there lived a curious boy named Ibn Khaldun. The year was 1332, and the city was alive with learning and culture. But did you know Ibn Khaldun had a best friend? A clever talking falcon named Farid, who was always perched on his shoulder.",10.00000,20.00000
Farid,"Ibn Khaldun, why do you spend so much time with those books? Come outside! The world is full of mysteries waiting to be explored.",20.00000,25.00000

Make sure to adjust the start and end times according to your project's needs. Once your script is formatted correctly, you can upload it to the Voiceover Studio and assign voices to each speaker before generating the audio.

I keep getting a "File Invalid" error

The "File Invalid" error might be due to the CSV file not being formatted correctly. Here are a few things to check:

  1. Separator: Ensure that your CSV file uses a comma (,) as the separator, not a semicolon (;). This is a common issue depending on your regional settings or the software used to create the CSV.

  2. Encoding: Make sure your CSV file is saved with UTF-8 encoding.

  3. File Size: Ensure the file size does not exceed any limits, though you mentioned it is under 20KB, which should be fine.

  4. Format: Double-check that the CSV file is structured correctly. It should look like this:

    speaker,line
Narrator,"Hello, little listeners! Welcome to the podcast where we explore the lives of extraordinary people whose words and ideas continue to inspire us. Tonight, we’re journeying back in time to meet Ibn Khaldun, a brilliant thinker who taught the world how to understand history and society. But tonight, he’s not alone—we’ll meet some fun and unexpected friends who joined him on his adventures. Snuggle up, close your eyes, and let’s begin."

Farid,"Ibn Khaldun, why do you spend so much time with those books? Come outside! The world is full of mysteries waiting to be explored."

If you've checked all these and the issue persists, try using an online CSV converter to ensure the file is formatted correctly. If the problem continues, you might consider manually entering the script into the Voiceover Studio as an alternative.

should the speaker and line be in the same cell?

In your CSV file, the speaker and line should be in separate columns. Here's how you should format your CSV file:

speaker,line
Narrator,"Hello, little listeners! Welcome to the podcast where we explore the lives of extraordinary people whose words and ideas continue to inspire us. Tonight, we’re journeying back in time to meet Ibn Khaldun, a brilliant thinker who taught the world how to understand history and society. But tonight, he’s not alone—we’ll meet some fun and unexpected friends who joined him on his adventures. Snuggle up, close your eyes, and let’s begin."

Farid,"Ibn Khaldun, why do you spend so much time with those books? Come outside! The world is full of mysteries waiting to be explored."

Ensure that each line of dialogue is enclosed in quotes, and there are no extra spaces or tabs between the columns. This should help resolve the "File Invalid" error.

When uploading a CSV file to Voiceover Studio, ensure that the first line of your file is formatted correctly. The header should be written in lowercase as "speaker,line". Each entry should be on a separate line, with the speaker and line separated by a comma. Here's a sample format:

speaker,line
Narrator,"Hello, little listeners! Welcome to the podcast where we explore the lives of extraordinary people whose words and ideas continue to inspire us. Tonight, we’re journeying back in time to meet Ibn Khaldun, a brilliant thinker who taught the world how to understand history and society. But tonight, he’s not alone—we’ll meet some fun and unexpected friends who joined him on his adventures. Snuggle up, close your eyes, and let’s begin."

Farid,"Ibn Khaldun, why do you spend so much time with those books? Come outside! The world is full of mysteries waiting to be explored."

Make sure there are no extra spaces or tabs between the speaker and line, and that the file is saved as a CSV file. If you continue to experience issues, double-check the file format and ensure it adheres to these guidelines.
