Does anyone know of a more ‘nuclear’ approach to adjusting subtitle offsets for media in Plex? I am aware of the feature in the media player that allows you to make ±50ms adjustments - but that isn’t working out too well for me. In particular, I have 1 show where. for some unknown reason - every episode’s subtitles are off by ~+25 seconds. That means thousands and thousands of ‘clicks’ when making adjustments 50ms at a time for ~100 some-odd episodes! Unfortunately the only external subtitles available for this series are all like this - every episode!
Is there a metadata file or db entry I can write a query for…or anything to make this quicker/easier/more approachable?
PS - to make matters worse, when I have to do this in the Apple TV app (click 50ms hundreds of times), it crashes the Plex app…so there’s another thing that makes it a pain!
Thanks! This looks cool. Next question: any idea where the subtitles are stored on the Plex server? I run mine on a Raspberry (e.g. Linux). I’ve done some digging around and so far I’ve not been able to locate where downloaded srt are stored (my fear is that they’re in a database).
Those subs, which you have edited yourself should be stored beside their associated video file.
Those which have been downloaded automatically or using the “Subtitle search” feature of Plex are stored in the “metadata bundle”, inside the Plex data folder.
Frankly, to manually find the correct subfolder for a given media item is a PITA.
I recommend you to install WebTools and use it to fetch those subtitles from the plex data folder.
Then store as described above.
