Key Features
Engineered for video editors and localization teams. Helps enforce common subtitle timing rules and formatting.
Subtitle Sync & Timing Calibration Live Execution Demo
In-Memory Processing
File parsing, mutations, and time shifts for standard tools run in browser memory without sending subtitle files to our servers.
Millisecond Precision
Millisecond-accurate timecode parsing and arithmetic prevent synchronization drift across desktop and web players.
Fault-Tolerant Engine
Automatic multi-encoding detection and syntax sanitization gracefully handle malformed cues and unexpected linebreaks.
Common Use Cases
Real-world scenarios across video post-production, course transcription, and global localization.
Fixed Offset
Subtitles play 2 seconds too early or too late. Use Time Shift to delay or advance all cues by the same amount.
Gradual Drift
Subtitles start in sync but gradually drift apart over time. Two-Point Calibration corrects both the offset and the speed factor.
Frame Rate Mismatch
Subtitles made for 24fps video played on 25fps video. The speed factor correction in Two-Point mode fixes this automatically.
PAL/NTSC Conversion
Subtitle timing is off due to PAL/NTSC conversion. Two-point calibration recalculates timing for the new frame rate.
Opening Credits
Your subtitles start after the opening credits but the video does not. Shift all cues to match the video start.
Multi-Source Sync
Subtitles from one release do not match another release of the same film. Use two-point calibration to realign.
How It Works
Streamlined end-to-end processing pipeline engineered for speed and precision.
Upload & Import
Select your subtitle file that is out of sync.
Format Analysis
Choose Time Shift for a fixed offset, or Two-Point Calibration for speed/drift correction.
For Time Shift
enter how much to delay or advance all cues.
For Two-Point
enter the current and correct timestamps for two reference cues.
Verify & Export
Click Sync and download the corrected subtitle file.

Frequently Asked Questions
Subtitle syncing adjusts the timing of subtitle cues so they align correctly with the video audio. This tool supports two modes: a fixed time shift for constant offset, and two-point calibration for correcting speed differences and drift.
You provide two reference points: the current time and the correct time for two cues. The tool calculates a linear transformation (t_new = a * t_old + b) that maps old times to new times, applying the correction uniformly to all cues.
Use HH:MM:SS,mmm format, e.g., 00:01:30,000 for 1 minute 30 seconds. You can also use shorter formats like MM:SS.mmm.
Use Time Shift when all subtitles are off by the same amount throughout the video. Use Two-Point Calibration when subtitles start correctly but gradually drift apart, which indicates a speed/frame-rate mismatch.
Yes. Select the Earlier direction and enter the amount to advance. Times that would become negative are clamped to 0.
