"""Batch ASR example for FunASR (improved)

Features added:
- argparse for command-line configuration
- optional recursive folder scan
- progress reporting with simple counts
- safer model loading and per-file error handling
- configurable output file and supported extensions
- creates output folder if missing
- configurable VAD model
