FA-78076 / Subtitle cue timing / Open access

Two-point subtitle synchronisation: mapped rounding · case 01

Mapped times with half-millisecond or larger fractions are one millisecond early.

Verified by executionVariant 1 · 9 checks per implementationDownload source bundle ↓JSON ↗

ROOT CAUSE

Mapped times are floored instead of rounded half up.

VERIFIED REPAIR

Round the exact mapped time half up.

Unsuccessful approach: Banker rounding sends exact halves with an even floor downwards.

Case contract

anchors [[a1,b1],[a2,b2]] (a1 != a2, b1 != b2) map subtitle time a to video time b linearly through both points. Each time is mapped exactly, rounded half up, clamped at 0; cues whose mapped end is not after the mapped start are dropped.

Why this case matters

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

Verification & scope

A deterministic bounded teaching model with a stipulated toy contract; it does not claim conformance to any subtitle standard. This reproducer isolates one failure mechanism. Results cover the supplied fixtures. Variants within a family share a test contract and should remain grouped when constructing evaluation splits. Related mechanisms with a shared evaluation_group must also remain together; these controlled models are not independent production incidents.
