# VTT Merging Script
This Python script merges `.vtt` subtitle files from two folders (`watch` and `shorts`) and combines them into merged `.vtt` files. It outputs three merged subtitle files:
- One for captions from the `watch` folder.
- One for captions from the `shorts` folder.
- One combining all captions from both folders.
## Requirements
- Python 3.x
- `webvtt-py` library for reading `.vtt` files. You can install it using pip:
```bash
pip install webvtt-py
```
## File Structure
Ensure the following folder structure:
```
your_project_folder/
├── watch/ # Folder containing VTT files for "watch"
├── shorts/ # Folder containing VTT files for "shorts"
├── merge/ # Folder where merged VTT files will be saved
├── merge_vtt.py # Python script (this script)
```
- **`watch/`**: Place `.vtt` files related to "watch" content here.
- **`shorts/`**: Place `.vtt` files related to "shorts" content here.
- **`merge/`**: The merged `.vtt` files will be saved in this folder.
## Usage
1. Place your `.vtt` subtitle files into the `watch/` and `shorts/` folders.
2. Run the script:
```bash
python merge_vtt.py
```
3. The script will generate the following merged files in the `merge/` folder:
- `watch_merge.vtt`: Merged captions from the `watch` folder.
- `shorts_merge.vtt`: Merged captions from the `shorts` folder.
- `all_merge.vtt`: Merged captions from both the `watch` and `shorts` folders.
## How It Works
- The script reads all `.vtt` files in the `watch/` and `shorts/` folders.
- It merges the captions from these files and stores the result in a new file.
- Three merged `.vtt` files are generated:
- **`watch_merge.vtt`**: Contains merged captions from the `watch` folder.
- **`shorts_merge.vtt`**: Contains merged captions from the `shorts` folder.
- **`all_merge.vtt`**: Contains merged captions from both `watch` and `shorts` folders.
## Folder and File Paths
The following paths are used in the script:
- **`watch_folder`**: Path to the folder containing the `watch` `.vtt` files (`../watch`).
- **`shorts_folder`**: Path to the folder containing the `shorts` `.vtt` files (`../shorts`).
- **`merge_results_folder`**: Path to the folder where the merged `.vtt` files will be saved (`merge/`).
## Example
### Folder Structure:
```
your_project/
├── watch/
│ ├── video1.vtt
│ ├── video2.vtt
├── shorts/
│ ├── short1.vtt
│ ├── short2.vtt
├── merge/
│ ├── watch_merge.vtt
│ ├── shorts_merge.vtt
│ ├── all_merge.vtt
```
### Output Example:
After running the script, the `merge/` folder will contain:
```
merge/
├── watch_merge.vtt
├── shorts_merge.vtt
├── all_merge.vtt
```
