For subtitles that do NOT require synchronization, load the file to ESS, repair them (use the Repair Tool) and finally save with a proper filename and encoding type. This action will increase the readability of your subtitles.
For subtitles that require synchronization, load the file to ESS, and try to synchronize them using Adjust Tool.
If the tool ‘Adjust’ fail to synchronize, try the Manual Synch tool. Finally repair them and save with a proper filename and encoding type.
