Congratulations to LingQ for audio transcription and import improvements

First off, some months ago, audio and text were terribly out of sync, at least for Turkish. Now it seems to be fixed [EDIT: NOT FULLY. TEXT AND AUDIO STILL GET OUT OF SYNC, BUT LESS THAN BEFORE] . Don’t know whether that’s something on LingQ’s side or the underlying services, but I’m super happy about that, as I was essentially paying for services that were not being provided. Now we’re cooking. Importing audio is going to be amazing and open a whole new world in LingQ for me.

Second, the BULK import feature is a huge improvement. It’s such a time-saver to be able to import several audios at once. Huge thanks for implementing this. I’ve noticed that 8 seems to be the maximum that the importer lets me import at the same time, not a big deal but reporting it in case that’s a bug.

So… Thank you for these changes.
Also, I would love to know how to be informed when changes like these are implemented so that I don’t miss out on new features.

Regarding the transcription, I should report that it still bugs out, but it’s better.

Yesterday I played a file sentence-by-sentence. It was in sync at the beginning, then got out of sync for part of the file (audio doesn’t match the text at all), got back in sync, got out of sync again… So there’s still improvement possible.
