Subtitle timeline sync

Correct subtitle timing

Apply a fixed offset or dual-anchor linear correction, preview timecodes, and download synced SRT / VTT.

Dual anchors apply only a linear time transform; they do not split, merge, or rewrite cues

Methods & limits

Fixed offset corrects constant error; two anchors correct error that grows over time

If every cue is 700 ms late, shift the entire track. If the start is close but the ending drifts, the source speed or edit likely differs; use two anchors to estimate offset and rate.

For anchors A and B, enter both the original subtitle time and correct video time. A linear map aligns both points exactly and applies the same transform to every cue start and end.

Corrected time = correct A + (source time − source A) × (correct B − correct A) ÷ (source B − source A).

FAQ

Correct subtitle timing · FAQ

Which method should I use?

Use fixed offset when error stays similar throughout; use dual anchors when it grows or shrinks during playback.

Where should anchors go?

Choose clear speech starts near the beginning and end. Wider separation produces a more stable drift estimate.

Can two anchors repair a cut in the middle?

No. Insertions or deletions create step changes that need segmented timing or a subtitle editor. Linear correction is for continuous drift.
