Why are my subtitles out of sync?

Subtitles can become out of sync if the video frame rate differs from the subtitle file, or if the video was cut or edited after the subtitles were created. A simple time shift is usually all you need to fix a constant offset.

Works with constant offset problems. If subtitles drift over time, you may need frame-rate conversion instead.
