Market walk: scrub-preview index

The WebVTT index for the sprite sheet in this group: 24 cues, one per second, each naming a rectangle of the sheet with an xywh media fragment. The sheet and this index are each useless alone, which is why they are paired.

Resolve every cue's media fragment against the sprite sheet.
Expected result
All 24 fragments resolve inside the sheet's 960x360 bounds, and no two cues name the same rectangle.

What is a .vtt file?

WebVTT (VTT) is the W3C subtitle and caption format used by the HTML5 <track> element for timed text on the web. It extends the SubRip model with cue settings, positioning, styling, and metadata, and requires a WEBVTT header. It is the standard format for browser-based captions.

How to use this file

Use an example VTT to test HTML5 <track> caption rendering, cue-setting and positioning parsers, and converters between WebVTT and SRT.

How to use this file for testing

“Market walk: scrub-preview index” is a deterministic Novus Examples fixture for Subtitle parsing, Media handling. The same captions written out across SubRip, WebVTT, ASS/SSA, SBV, TTML and a synced LRC lyric file, with known timings, for exercising subtitle parsers, format converters and burn-in tools against every serialisation.

Documented properties for this file: 24 cues. Compare results against paired or grouped companions on this page when present (clean↔damaged, searchable↔scanned, or format twins) so scores stay reproducible across runs.

Download the file once, keep the path stable in CI or local scripts, and treat the spec table as the contract: dimensions, seeds, field lists, and roles are intentional. Corrupt or invalid samples are labelled as such, expect parsers to fail loudly rather than silently accept them.

Media fixtures are short and synthetic by design. Prefer waveform or transcript ground truth in the same group when measuring ASR, trim, upscale, or sync tools; do not assume broadcast-quality masters.

Parse the cues and check timings against the documented count; the same captions ship across subtitle formats so you can diff a converter against a known target.
