Hi. I am newbie of this library. Now I have a disk to download data, but after downloading data my disk is full, so I have to create a new metadata file in different disk. Now I have to load my downloaded data(in disk D:\Users\data) and metadata(in disk E:\data) in 1 dataset. How can I do that ?

I know if metadata and datafile in same folder, we can use Audiofolder, but because i can not put datafile and metadata in same directory, do i have another way to use audiofolder to load my data ? please help

from datasets import load_dataset
dataset = load_dataset("audiofolder", 
data_dir='D:\Users\data')

No, this is not supported. In that case, it’s best to use Dataset.from_generator to combine the audio files with the corresponding metadata.
