I'd recommend Mnemosyne over jMemorize. SuperMemo's memorization system seems to be much more suited to long-term memorization than the Leitner system, and Mnemosyne's algorithm is based on SuperMemo's. I use SuperMemo myself, but, sadly, it is extremely poorly-designed and poorly-coded software, and in good conscience I cannot recommend it to anybody who does not need its more advanced features.

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but does anyone know of an SRS programme where you can
import audio files like you can text files? (i.e. in mass amounts rather than
individually)

At the moment with Mnemosyne I'm having to input all the audio files individually and
it's taking a massive amount of time to do.

If anyone has any suggestions I'd appreciate it.


Thanks.

I'm able to import multiple audio files pretty easily with Supermemo. I'm not sure, but I thought Anki could do this, too.

You can do this in Anki with a little work.

1. First, create a TSV* file with all the stuff you want to import. In the column for the sound input "[sound:filename.mp3]".
2. Copy your sounds files into the ".media" folder. eg, French.media if the name of your deck is "French".
3. Now import your TSV file into your deck.
4. Study!

* tab separated values. I think comma separated should work, too. When I did it I used tab because I know tabs wouldn't appear in any of my sentences and therefore I didn't have to do any escaping of commas.

The only issue is that step #1 might be just as much of a hassle as what you are already doing. When I did it this way, I wrote a script to do the grunt work for me :).

In Anki it's a lot easier than that I think. You can do it right on the card when you add it in. There's a little button right there. Although it might be time consuming if you have a lot of sound clips.
