Ra Audio To Subtitles

真实时间戳字幕

Use the final audio stream as the only timing source. Never estimate final subtitle timing from character count, scene duration, TTS segment duration, or fixed delays.

Required workflow

1. Finish and concatenate narration first. If the user recorded or merged a video, use that final merged media instead.
2. Run scripts/generate_subtitles.py against the final media and the exact narration script.
3. Inspect phrase segmentation. Keep English product/model tokens intact, merge isolated one-word fragments, and place connectors such as 比如说, 但是, and 只是 with the phrase they introduce.
4. Render captions from captions.json; export captions.srt for Bilibili, YouTube, editing software, and archive.
5. Require caption-qc.json to report status: pass before final render or delivery. The gate includes alignment, overlap, fragments, connector splits, caption duration, and reading speed.
6. If ASR fails or alignment coverage is below the gate, stop. A character- count estimate may be used only for an explicitly labeled scratch preview.

Commands

Project with narration_segments.json:

bashCopy code
python3 .claude/skills/ra-audio-to-subtitles/scripts/generate_subtitles.py \
  <project>/media/final-voiceover.mp3 \
  --script <project>/narration_segments.json \
  --out-dir <project>/media/captions

Recorded or merged video with a Markdown handoff containing - 口播： lines:

bashCopy code
python3 .claude/skills/ra-audio-to-subtitles/scripts/generate_subtitles.py \
  <project>/merged.mp4 \
  --script <project>/handoff.md \
  --out-dir <project>/media/captions

Health check:

bashCopy code
python3 .claude/skills/ra-audio-to-subtitles/scripts/generate_subtitles.py --doctor

Offline regression test with an existing Volcengine response:

bashCopy code
python3 .claude/skills/ra-audio-to-subtitles/scripts/generate_subtitles.py \
  <audio> --script <script> --asr-result <volcengine-result.json> \
  --out-dir <output>

Output contract

The output directory must contain:

• asr-result.json: raw Volcengine response
• captions_words.json: word/character timestamps and detected gaps
• captions.json: phrase captions consumed by HyperFrames or Remotion
• captions.srt and captions.vtt: portable subtitle files
• caption-qc.json: alignment coverage and timing validation

Read references/artifact-contract.md before integrating another renderer or delivery checker.

Hard rules

• Transcribe the exact final audio used by the MP4. Do not transcribe an earlier segment, draft voice, or a differently trimmed file.
• Use the original narration text for display and ASR only for timing. This preserves names, English terms, punctuation, and intentional wording.
• Align the original script to ASR tokens before grouping phrases. Do not scale boundaries by total character count.
• Phrase captions remain the default. Word timestamps are the timing substrate, not a requirement to show karaoke-style one-character captions.
• Preserve meaningful spaces inside English names such as Claude Max; never split an ASCII product/model token across captions.
• Reject captions shorter than 0.5 seconds, isolated fragments, split discourse connectors, and reading speeds above 12 units/s. Treat speeds above 9 units/s as a review warning.
• Keep one canonical caption timeline. Scene changes, keyword reveals, and component cues should look up caption text or timestamps from that timeline.
• VOLCENGINE_API_KEY comes from the workspace root .env or the environment. Never print or copy it into an artifact.
• Default resource ID is volc.seedasr.auc; override only with VOLCENGINE_RESOURCE_ID when the account uses a different enabled resource.
• Final delivery requires alignment coverage at least 0.90 unless a stricter project contract is set. Lower coverage is a failure, not a warning.
