Parse and convert subtitle formats with NodeJS

subtitle-converter's Issues

Trim lines in case there is a whitespace at the end

Some systems produce srt with spaces at end of time lines.
Would be nice to auto-trim them before conversion.
Otherwise we'll get errors like:

invalidEntries: [
    {
      id: '1',
      timecode: '00:00:00,333 --> 00:00:06,066 ',
      text: '\nBACK TO SPRING HEADING INTO\nNEXT WEEK.'
    },
   (...)

How to use this project in browser?

Hi, is there is a way to use it as a browser library?

Add more output formats

Currently we can only output to SRT. It should be fairly trivial to add support for outputting to the other input file types we accept.

DVD Studio Pro reader and writer

Also known as Spruce Technologies, the specification is available here.

Create CLI tool

A CLI tool may be useful for teams unfamiliar with NodeJS.
