Advance Synchronisation

When subtitles are late compared to the audio, and only in this case, you can use the advance synchronisation functionality of VLC :

  • Step 1 : Detect (“hear and see”) that subtitles are out of sync
  • Step 2 : Press Shift H when you hear a sentence that you will be able to easily recognize
  • Step 3 : Press Shift J when you read the same sentence in the subtitle
  • Step 4 : Press Shift K to correct the sync
