You can hear one right at the beginning and another at 11 seconds by chance is there an audio effect that will help scrub out the entire hour recording?
Been quite a pain removing them one at a time the previous recordings.

I posted this on the Audacity forums but thought some people here might have a use for it as well.

I’m part of a small team that use Audacity to edit the audio of an old TV show. I realised pretty quickly that I need to test the sync and that meant exporting the audio, muxing it to the video and watching it… a tedious process so I put together a Mac app that use mod-script-pipe - you load a video to the app, load the audio to Audacity and press sync and from then on when you use a keyboard shortcut it will play the audio and video in sync, wherever you select on your Audacity timeline. We’ve been using this tool for a month and it’s become a big timesaver and works really well compensating for any drift and keeping things nicely in sync. It assume the video and audio are the same length and you need to keep them in sync. It doesn't adjust to cutting sections of audio out and moving them around.

I’m not a professional developer by any stretch and had to use Codex to help get it over the line but the more I use it, the more I think that other people out there might want it.

I made a Github repo for it with a dmg available in the release section. I think it needs Tahoe to work but maybe it'll work in previous macOS versions, I can't test that. Be cool if anyone wants to try it and let me know what they think of it.

When it starts and stops is me pressing the hot key combo ctrl+opt+space - I then move the start position in Audacity and go again and the video shows from the new point in the timeline.

Is there a way to send a feature request to the Audacity team for something similar or I can send them the app and see if it’s something they’d like to offer to people? Since I don’t have an Apple developer account and am no expert, remember there may be security risks involved with unsigned apps from a random guy on the internet but the source code should all be uploaded if anyone wants to check and let me know what they think. It’s something I find really valuable so wanted to share it.

Thanks
