Coordinate System

Mouse coordinates use screen center as origin (0,0):

Negative X = left, Positive X = right
Negative Y = up, Positive Y = down

For 1920x1080 screen:

Top-left: (-960, -540)
Center: (0, 0)
Bottom-right: (960, 540)

Add captions or subtitles to an existing single-subject talking-head video without editing the footage. Use for plain verbatim captions, cinematic captions embedded behind the subject, VFX captions, “炸/特效/酷炫字幕,” or a named identity from the 35-style catalog. Route by visual identity, not by backend engine. The quiet anchor rail is the default; embed every word only when the user explicitly wants a fully cinematic treatment. The workflow runs locally end to end, including transcription and subject matting; split multi-shot footage before applying it.
