One of the great features for VLC is the ability to adjust the subtitles and the timing sync up with the video. It’s simple but elegant, and would make some of the subtitles auto-scraped from OpenSubtitles MUCH more useful.   
  
  
It seems like it’d be relatively easy to implement, but it’d add a lot of ancillary value.

Thumb for this!

Sometimes you do not have the correct subtitles and you just have to use those that you have, even when they are out of sync.

Also, I wouldn’t mine if Plex would somehow feedback how other users adjusted their subtitles. But that might be overdoing it, basic syncing would be great.

A request for the same feature exists already, and it has more votes.

> [@Implemented - Subtitle synchronization](https://forums.plex.tv/t/subtitle-synchronization/312623/1):
>
> Please include a feature that allows us to time-shift subtitles back and forth (ms/secs), for subtitles which are out of sync, or sometimes become out of sync during playback. Agreed it is better to sort it out before starting playback, but that is not always possible, and with the new great adhoc subtitle feature, this would be very much appreciated. Plex must be the only player out there that doesn’t support this slight_smile

Therefore this one is closed.  
Votes are given back to the users who voted on this request. Please think of re-voting in the other thread if you still want it.
