I import a csv file including my annotations and their durations to Elan but it doesn’t work well.
Although I tried all kinds of changes regarding durations in the csv file, the annotations still appear to be of equal length (1000 ms). How can I solve this problem?
That is difficult to say without the csv at hand. If I understand correctly you have for each annotation a start time and at least either an end time or a duration (or both)?
Maybe the log (View->View Log…) contains relevant messages after the import action?
Sometimes import fails because of the format of numbers in a column (e.g. the value 20 is interpreted as 20 milliseconds, 20.0 as 20 seconds), but that doesn’t seem to be the case here, if all annotations have a duration of 1 second.
If you want, you can send the csv to me for testing (han.sloetjes AT mpi.nl).
Yes, I have start_timestamp and durations for each annotation. I don’t see any relevant message in the log report. I am sending the csv file to you by e-mail.
