Any plans for timestamps?

Hey man, just tested your scraper and work wonders.

The reason I've been experimenting with different scrapers is because I needed timestamps for an automation project.

I used the trial of this one since it is a single dollar: https://console.apify.com/actors/fWIyRKfnKlxB1r5CX/input

But due to apify's predatory pricing I'd have to pay $49 per month for using a $1 service.

Do you have any plans in giving timestamp options?

Here's what the outputs would look like before fed in my system:

[{ "videoTitle": "Full 5 Hour A.I Infrastructure Masterclass (For Beginners)", "url": "https://youtu.be/4p-wItQLr1I?si=ib9D3Q6i_PPHCYNf", "transcriptWithTimestamps": [ { "timestamp": "0:01", "text": "okay so AI infrastructures are extremely new to pretty much everyone and most" }, { "timestamp": "0:06", "text": "people don't even know what they are most people don't know how to sell them most people don't know how to Market them most people don't know how to build" }, { "timestamp": "0:13", "text": "them and and launch to them but it's like the biggest companies in the world right now like Nvidia they're selling AI" },

Hey Asluar, we could definitely add that as an option. How soon do you what the timestamp option?

I've made in my system a slider. Currently I'm using 20-20 second snippets, but I am scraping as little as 1 second from snippet.

So I'd say that if you want to lock in a sweet-spot would be >10secs

Hey AsLuar! We've just rolled out the timestamp toggle update! 🎉 Now you can easily switch timestamps on or off using a checkbox, making it even more flexible for different snippet lengths. Let us know how it works with your setup, and if you have any feedback! 🚀

Great Work Moses! I'll give it a shot and come back after some testing
