Example

Using srt-parse:

python3 srt-parse.py foo.wav foo.srt

Will produce in the following files in the output directory (by default .\out\)

0-audio.wav
1-audio.wav
2-audio.wav
3-audio.wav
...
out.csv

Each file is made per subtitle in the .srt file and out.csv groups each audio file to its transcript.
