- **Approach:**
- **Prompt Caching (`-c`):** Implemented a rolling context buffer that feeds the last 200 characters of previously transcribed text back into Whisper as an `initial_prompt`, maintaining sentence continuity.
- **Language Bypassing (`--lang`):** Added the ability to hardcode the source language to skip the Whisper language identification phase on every chunk.
- **Heuristic Punctuation Buffering:** When `-c` is enabled, English translations are buffered until a definitive punctuation mark (`.`, `?`, `!`) is reached, preventing grammatical errors caused by translating partial sentences.
- **Heuristic Punctuation Buffering (Reverted):** Briefly implemented a system to hold English translations until a definitive punctuation mark was reached to prevent grammatical errors. This was reverted because Whisper's punctuation generation is not 100% reliable, leading to translations getting "stuck" in the buffer indefinitely if no period was generated.
