In this article we present a novel method of hit time and position reconstruction in long scintillator detectors. We take advantage the fact that for kind detectors amplitude shape registered signals depends strongly on where particle detector. The is based determination degree similarity between measured averaged stored library set well-defined positions along scintillator. Preliminary results validation introduced with experimental data obtained by means double strip prototype J-PET detector are presented.
