Another fun and useful project from 2024. I did this work for a nice gentleman named Andy Walters. He was looking to automatically split videos along the natural pause boundaries between sentences.

So I wrote up this neat little script that uses the Whisper-Timestamp model and library to find those boundaries and split the video on them so that no words get chopped in mid-utterance.

The company Andy was working for didn't make their next round of funding. Before we mothballed the whole thing Andy gave me permission to open source the code.

I realized too late, with just one more pass through an LLM you could have the json splitter file that was generated rearranged to split by subject. If I had the time I would include that feature but until then it is still useful like it is.
