Hello,

I am curious about a certain feature, which is probably not available but I would like to make sure.

When I am watching a movie, either recorded on my HD51 or downloaded from the internet, I sometimes want to add subtitles to it.

Unfortunately, it is often not possible to match correct subtitles because of commercial breaks (for recorded movies) or some other issues. They are simply out of sync or they become out-of-sync as the film progresses.

Is it perhaps possible to adjust subtitles when watching a movie "on the fly" by delaying or advancing them by one second or a couple of seconds? That would be a very convenient feature.

When you have subtitles active, pres Yellow, Yellow, Blue (or Subtitles, Blue). You can define a delta from -10 to +20 seconds.

Thanks.

I was not aware of that. Will have to try.

Just a quick question.

Is it possible to use external SRT subtitles with a movie recorded from TV (TS file)?

How to do that?

Not possible, I guess?

Change suffix from ts to e.g. mpg. Then file will be played back with gstreamer. And with gstreamer you can external srt subtitles afaik.
(Don’t know how good it works)
