Transcription affects the output a lot. Whisper is okay, but does not give perfect transcription. A manual transcription passed via `--transcription` is better.
+Keep `CHUNK_SIZE_WORDS` small (default 40). Every API call is a single model generation: long generations lose prosody, can degrade into garbled audio, and text past the model's token limit is never spoken. If parts of a book sound flat, monotone, or garbled, the chunk size is the first thing to check.

+`MIN_DELAY_BETWEEN_CHUNKS` only matters for hosted demos (rate limits); a local server needs no delay (default 0).

Manual transcription, imperfect whisper transcription, and `--no-transcription` each provide different results. Usually the most accurate transcription is the best, but sometimes `--no-transcription` can produce a flat tone that might be preferable for certain voices.
Even tiny amounts of pause between phrases in the sample audio can have a big impact. Try increasing or decreasing them.
