About recitation data

Every recitation on QUL comes as audio files plus segment data — the timestamps that say which word is being recited at which moment. Segments are what lets you highlight words as the audio plays.

Recitations come in one of two shapes:

Surah by surah (gapless)

114 audio files, one per surah.
Each file plays the whole surah without pauses between ayahs.
Segments tell you where each ayah starts and ends inside that one long file.

Ayah by ayah (gapped)

6,236 audio files, one per ayah.
Each file contains a single ayah, so you can play one ayah without downloading a whole surah.
Segments are relative to the start of that ayah's own file.

A segment is a three-number array: [word position, start in ms, end in ms]. Word positions start at 1 and match the word order of the ayah.
