> still a huge PITA and I feel like a toddler making an "L" with my hands to tell right from left when it comes to knowing "Do I need to increase or decrease the offset to fix this?", "Ok, I saw the subs before I heard it so I need to increase the offset", etc
Phew, it's not just me then.
- joshstrange 5y agoHaha, nope, not just you. I can't count the number of times I've gone too far in one direction and it's taken me 20+ adjustments before I realize I've overshot and now I'm making it worse with each button press. I don't know if it's just a subset of us but my brain has not found the "trick" to noticing this, I have to very consciously think about it each time I make an offset. No joke, I've consider laminating a quick "crash course"/"flow chart" of how to fix subtitles just for myself since I have to stop and think every time I do it.
- scrollaway 5y agoThe wording is what's confusing and there's no easy way to remember if +50ms means "The subtitles should appear 50ms later (+50ms delay)" or "The subtitles should appear 50ms earlier (Fix a +50ms adjustment)"...
- joshstrange 5y agoExactly! Every single time I have imagine there are 2 tracks in something like Logic Pro and the videos stays where it is and I can only shift the subtitle track, once I visualize that I’m able to figure out what needs to be done. I wish it was closer to second nature.
