yt-edit
An edit decision list from a timestamped transcript. It prints the cuts. You apply them.
python3 deadair.py transcript.srt # srt, vtt or whisper json
python3 deadair.py transcript.srt --floor 0.35 --json

track YouTube generates on an unlisted upload all work. Do not guess at timings.
What it finds
- DEAD - gaps longer than the floor, trimmed from the MIDDLE so both sides keep a breath. Cutting flush against speech is what makes a tightened take sound gasping.
- FILLER - cues that are nothing but "um", "so yeah", "basically".
- REPEAT - a sentence restarted. Compared against the last cue that was actually speech, not the literal previous cue, because most retakes have an "um" between the two attempts.
