Simply Broken

Four episodes, two of them unseen

Widened to ten seconds either side, as you asked. Episodes 5 and 6 are produced. Episodes 1 and 2 are the real test — nobody has ever listened to them, and their spans came from the detector alone.

Why the detector was allowed to be generous. A false positive used to mean processing audio that did not need it. Here it means replacing clean room with other clean room from the same recording, which costs almost nothing. So the threshold over-flags rather than under-flags — the opposite of every earlier round, and the right trade for this method. If a region comes back nothing was wrong here, that is a cheap miss rather than damage.

Opener offsets, measured not assumed: episode 1 opens with the voiced 10.62 s opener, the other three with the 7.03 s sting. An earlier version of this page assumed 7.03 for all four, so every episode-1 comparison was 3.59 s out of step and the two buttons played different moments. The offsets are now read from the files.

The voice stem is untouched in all four — verified bit-identical — so nothing about widening or over-flagging can reach the voices.
