An interactive shell to retime SRT files.

SRT::Shell

An interactive shell to retime SRT files.

Installation

For now you can only install this by cloning the repo, and then run the following commands:

bundle install
rake install

Usage

Start the shell with the command:

srt-shell

You could also optionally pass in an SRT file's path as an argument:

srt-shell file.srt

Commands

In the shell, the commands available will be shown with the 'help' command:

help

load '[filename]'

Load an SRT file.

exit

Exit the shell

The following commands can only be used when we already have an SRT file loaded.

Do note that all indexes start from 1, not 0.

interval [time in ms]

This would scan the SRT file for time gaps larger than the given time in ms. This is useful to search for indexes to be used with the time-shifting commands.

upshift|u [index] [time in ms]

Rewind the given time in ms for lines from index onwards.

forward|f [index] [time in ms]

Forward the given time in ms for lines from index onwards.

remove [index]

Remove line with the given index

save

Save (overwrite) the SRT file. You can place an executable file in $HOME/.srt_shell_hook to be executed when 'save' is used.

search [word]

Search for the given word in the SRT file and print out the entries that contain the word.

Platform

I've only tested this on Linux because it's the only machine I have.
