Little tool to fix overlapping subtitles (especially the ones extracted from english auto-subtitles of youtube, vtt files that you would convert to srt with ffmpeg)

"Sir, I compiled your original code and tested it by fixing a subtitle file, say abc.srt. The output ends up being named abc.srt.fixed, which is a bit inconvenient since the operating system doesn't recognize it as a standard subtitle file due to the altered extension. So I modified the code to generate the output as abc.fixed.srt instead—this way, the .srt extension remains intact and the file is still recognized properly."
