And again (since some days) the dropdownfield for choose the language is stuck on my own language and highlighted in orange.

The system is cleaned, FF is 46.0.

use VLC Player to play videos Then all you have to do is press the F or G keys to speed up or slow down the subtitles to sync them to your video If this is your advice, what do you do, when the subs are sync at the start but drift away with the runtime? Or when the movie is cut, but the subs not or...

And if you do OCR for subtitles yourself you can use a program called SubExtractor.
It's avoiding these error when you trained it right.

Meanwhile (over 1 1/2 years ago) I changed to DvdSubExtractor with best results. The handling is a little different from other mentioned programs. But the Extractor provides several clear advantages: 1. The margin of error is almost 0 percent 2. The additional features such as intelligent splitting ...

You'll see other packages related to subtitleeditor and on the bottom of this site you'll find .deb downloads for many architectures.
