title: Getting timestamps from audio using python
body: <p>I have many audio files where I would like to automatically add timestamps when speech begins and ends. So a "start" timestamp when an utterance begins. And a "stop" timestamp when an utterance ends.</p>
  
  <p>Like:</p>
  
  <pre><code>start,stop
  0:00:02.40,0:00:11.18
  0:00:18.68,0:00:19.77
  ...
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I tested the following solution and it works ok: <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45526996/split-audio-files-using-silence-detection/57126101">Split audio files using silence detection</a> Issue is I only get the chunks from this, which makes matching the timestamps against the original audio, somewhat difficult</p>
  
  <p>Any solutions or nudges in the right direction would be highly appreciated!</p>
