FAQ
Why does my YouTube transcript repeat every line?
Auto-captions roll, so each cue repeats the previous line. “Remove repeated lines” detects that pattern and keeps each sentence once.
How are paragraphs created?
Lines are joined into paragraphs, and a new paragraph starts whenever there's a pause longer than the gap you set (2 seconds by default).
Does it keep italics?
Formatting tags are removed by default for clean text; untick “Strip formatting tags” to keep them.
