Shot-change snapping of cue boundaries: nearest shot choice · case 03

Boundaries snap to the first cut in range even when a closer cut exists.

Member previewVariant 3 · 3 implementations · 9 checks per implementation

Case contract

For each cue, the start snaps to the nearest shot change within window ms (|shot - start| <= window; ties go to the earlier shot). The end snaps so that it sits gap ms before the nearest shot change within window of end+gap. If snapping leaves end <= start, the original cue is kept unchanged.

Why this case matters

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