| 1456769 | 2018-12-22 05:27:00 | Hi, working on captioning and editing some videos, and we've realised that editing the videos (not on YouTube) has now put the whole captions file out of sync for the entire duration, e.g. by 5 seconds (due to cutting out 5 secs at the start of video). Yes, I know, we should have waited til the videos were edited before captioning... Is there any way to fix the entire captions, rather than moving each segment over by 5 secs (for eg)? In YouTube? Or in Premiere Pro? In YT, I tried to select all captions, but this was not an option for me. Thanks |

| 1456771 | 2019-01-13 03:14:00 | Thanks wainui. I worked on some in Premiere Pro, then exported them as .srt (prefer them as closed captions, can turn on/off). However, doing this, defaults them back to the original timestamps they were imported with. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? I am saving the changes I made, then exporting. They do work after exporting, but with the original (and out of sync) timestamps. |

| 1456772 | 2019-01-13 20:36:00 | In SubtitleEdit, I think you should be able to open your .srt file, shift the whole thing by x seconds, and then save it with the new timing. | rumpty (2863) | ||
| 1456773 | 2019-01-19 02:18:00 | caffy I use MKVtoolNIX to add subtitles to Video files. You have Video file to add and then add the .srt file.... in the right pane you have options to set the subs ahead or delay in ms....1 second is 1000ms. I find what delay or Hasten time is by running the video and sub in VLC Player and use the Tools in that to hasten/delay the subtitle until I am satisfied all is in sync then I use that info to apply the hasten/delay in ms to the imported sub file of the vid file loaded into MKVToolNIX. I get the option to set the sub as Default auto play and still be able to not have it show on-screen. When all is set up as desired click Start and it will make a new video file in the same folder as the file it is working with and I end up with an MKV MP4 video with subs synced. It is Free to get and use. Does a grand job. www.fosshub.com www.google.co.nz |
