Subtitle sync question.

[SilverFoo]

Hi,

I have a problem: a xvid movie in 23fps and a subtitle file in 25 fps. Ofcourse its out of sync. I tried looking for a 23fps subitle file but there seems to be none.

So i need to sync the subtitle to 23 fps. I tried several programs (subsync etc..) but none seem to work. Is there a program that automatically converts your subtitle file to 23 fps so its in sync?

I tried it the other way around (converting the xvid to 25 fps) but that didnt work.. strangely.. and it cost me a day so im quite desperate now.

Any help is appriciated, thanks alot!

Install Subtitle Workshop and read the included help file how to sync a subtitle with video.
I suggest that you print the help file and use it while you work with the program.
All you have to do is:
- open your subtitle file and open the movie,
- click on the first subtitle line, determine the time where the first subtitle line is shown, pause the video at that point, mark as first sync point (Ctrl+1),
- then click on the last subtitle line, determine where it is shown in video, pause the video at that point and mark as last sync point (Ctrl+2).

This works and it's easy to do.

or just open it in subtitle workshop and select 25fps in the "Input FPS" box and 23 fps in the "Output FPS" box, if that works.

Nope. Doesn't work for me.
