EdgeSpeak Karaoke

Create karaoke subtitles from one EdgeSpeak transcription request. Use the bundled zero-dependency Node.js scripts for deterministic ASS generation, real-frame style previews, and FFmpeg rendering.

Let the user pick the look

Collect the source path, output location, and whether the user wants ASS, hard subtitles, or both. Style is the one decision the user can see and disagree with, so treat it as theirs by default:

• Explicit: honor the named preset or overrides. Available presets are classic, minimal, boxed, and high-contrast.
• Auto: only when the user actually hands the decision over — "you pick", "whatever works", "just make it quick", "use the default". Choose from the table below and continue without blocking.
• Preview then ask — the default whenever the user stated no style preference. Render every preset on real source frames, show the PNGs with the runtime's image-viewing capability, and ask one compact question. A terminal can list paths and descriptions, but ANSI text is not a faithful visual preview.
