@thewh1teagle How did you generate the word_timestamps.json. Was there a specific param I need to pass?

See tazz4843/whisper-rs#156 (comment)
Basically you need to set max_len to how many characters you want, and enable split_on_word so it will keep the words instead of cutting in the middle and then just get the text segments
