# YouTube Timecode Generator (Gradio / Hugging Face Spaces)

Generate YouTube-style timecodes from a long audio file.

## Features
- Auto-detect track starts using silence detection (pydub + ffmpeg)
- Manual starts (seconds / mm:ss / hh:mm:ss)
- Optional custom titles (one per line)
- Exports ready-to-paste timecodes and downloadable `timecodes.txt`

## How to use
1. Upload your album/playlist audio (mp3/wav/flac).
2. Choose **Auto** or **Manual**.
   - Auto: tune **Silence threshold**, **Minimum silence**, **Seek step**.
   - Manual: enter comma-separated starts.
3. (Optional) Paste **Titles** (one per line).
4. Click **Generate Timecodes** → copy result or download `timecodes.txt`.

## Notes
- This Space uses `ffmpeg` via `packages.txt`.
- For loud continuous mixes or live recordings, Auto mode may need higher `min_silence` and a less negative `silence_threshold` (e.g., -26 dBFS).
