FA-78005 / Subtitle cue timing / Member archive

Minimum cue duration extension: never shorten · case 05

Short cues crowded by a close neighbour get even shorter or inverted.

Member previewVariant 5 · 3 implementations · 8 checks per implementation

Case contract

Cues [start,end] may be unsorted; the neighbour of a cue is the next cue in (start, input index) order. A cue shorter than min_dur has its end extended to start+min_dur, limited to neighbour_start - min_gap; an end is never shortened. Output keeps input order.

Why this case matters

Subtitle timing defects shift, hide or overlap captions that viewers depend on for comprehension and accessibility.
