VideOCR v1.3.3-Beta2

Highlights:

• Preprocessing step for vfr videos (Mapping) and Step 1 are now multithreaded (e.g. up to 7x performance increase on a 6-Core 5600x).
• Adds a progress bar and a status message for better progress indication
• Adds ETA calculation for every step
• The CLI version can now be run in parallel to process multiple videos at the same time (thanks @Phr33d0m)
• ISO 639 Language codes are now added to the subtitle file names. This allows video players to identify the correct subtitle language
• Command Line Arguments for the CLI version are now properly validated to provide a user-friendly error message

Fixes:

• Fix usage of wrongly sized image for subtitle position "any" in ssim calculation. This resulted in a performance decrease in previous versions.

Highlight of the v1.3.x release

• The main highlight is the newly added support for PaddleOCR 3.x.x with greatly improved OCR capabilities in more than 40 languages, including English, Chinese, Japanese, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, Korean, etc.

Notes:

• Utilizes standalone version of PaddleOCR from https://github.com/timminator/PaddleOCR-Standalone
• Linux version requires glibc 2.35 or newer (can be checked by running ldd --version in a terminal)
