+# Whisper-Powered Subtitle Synchronization
+
+**A smart subtitle synchronization tool powered by (OpenAI's) Whisper.**
+
+This tool automatically detects and fixes desynchronized subtitles by listening to the audio track of your media. Unlike standard tools that only apply a fixed time shift, this project detects **Non-Linear Drift**, **Framerate Mismatches**, and **Variable Speed** issues, applying an "Elastic" correction map to perfectly align subtitles from start to finish.
+
+Designed to work as a standalone CLI tool or a **Bazarr** post-processing script.
+
+> [!INFO]
+> Generative AI has been used during the development of this project.
+---
+
+## Installation
+### 1. Prerequisites
+
+* **Python 3.9+**
+* **FFmpeg:** Must be installed and accessible in your system PATH.
+* *Linux:* `sudo apt install ffmpeg`
+* *Windows:* Download binaries and add to PATH.
+
+
+
+### 2. Clone & Install
+
+```bash
+git clone <url of this repo>
+cd <repo folder>
+
+# (Optional) Create a virtual environment
+python -m venv venv
+source venv/bin/activate  # or venv\Scripts\activate on Windows
+
+# Install dependencies
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+
+```
+
+---
+
+## Configuration
+
+All settings are located in `config.py`. You can tweak these to balance speed vs. accuracy, the most importants being:
+
+```python
+SYNC_CONFIG = {
+    "device": "cpu",            # Use 'cuda' if you have an NVIDIA GPU
+    "compute_type": "int8",     # Use 'float16' for GPU
+    "sample_count": 25,         # How many points to check (higher = more accurate curve)
+    "scan_duration_sec": 60,    # The length of each audio chunk to transcribe (higher = more data, slower)
+    "correction_method": "auto" # "auto", "constant", or "force_elastic"
+}
+
+```
+
+---
+
+## How It Works
+
+1. **Extract:** The tool extracts small audio chunks (e.g., 60 seconds) at regular intervals (Checkpoints) throughout the media file.
+2. **Transcribe:** It uses Whisper to transcribe the speech in those chunks.
+3. **Match:** It fuzzy-matches the transcribed text against the subtitle file to find the *actual* timestamp vs the *subtitle* timestamp.
+4. **Analyze:**
+   - If offsets are stable  Apply **Global Offset**. 
+   - If offsets drift linearly  Apply **Linear Regression** (Slope correction).
+   - If offsets are chaotic  Generate an **Elastic Map** (Piecewise Interpolation).
+
+
+5. **Apply:** The subtitles are rewritten with the corrected timings.
+

+
+## Usage
+### Command Line (Manual)
+
+You can run the script manually by mimicking the Bazarr argument format:
+
+```bash
+python main.py \
+  episode="/path/to/movie.mkv" \
+  episode_name="My Movie" \
+  subtitles="/path/to/subs.srt" \
+  episode_language="English" \
+  subtitles_language="English"
+
+```
+
+### Integration with Bazarr
+
+> [!CAUTION]
+> Untested yet
+
+This tool is designed to be a "Custom Script" in Bazarr.
+
+1. Go to **Bazarr > Settings > Subtitles > Post-Processing**.
+2. Enable **"Execute a custom script"**.
+3. **Command:**
+```bash
+python /path/to/script/main.py
+
+```
+
+
+4. **Arguments:**
+```text
+episode="{{episode}}" episode_name="{{episode_name}}" subtitles="{{subtitles}}" episode_language="{{episode_language}}" subtitles_language="{{subtitles_language}}"
+
+```
+
+*(Note: Bazarr passes these variables automatically).*
