Advance Synchronisation

When subtitles are late compared to the audio, you can use the advance synchronisation functionality of VLC :

  • Step 1 : Detect (“hear and see”) that subtitles are out of sync
(No high tech voice recognition needed here, just let the user detect it)
  • Step 2 : Press “Shift H” when you recognize a sentence you hear on the audio
  • Step 3 : Press “Shit J” when you read the same sentence in the subtitle
  • Step 4 : Press “Shift K” to correct the sync
