I see this feature in my plex client players in Fire TV, but is it basically still in development or something? Or, maybe I don’t know how to use it? I see no adjustments regardless of how many 50 MS increments I do. Can someone advise on how to use this feature? Thanks. ---

That’s not a feature in the Plex app. Can you provide a screenshot of what you see? ---

it actually is part of [Plex for Android 7.10.0](https://forums.plex.tv/t/plex-for-android/29115/293) > **WHATS NEW:** > > - External subtitle offset adjustment support. I’m just looking for a video with an external subtitle to check it out – haven’t used it myself ### Edit: referring to the right line of the 7.10.0 release notes – I suppose it’s time for me to get to bed 😉 (thanks @anon18523487) ---

@bltplex: just tested the feature and it worked straight away. - negative offset… the subtitles show early - positive offset… the subtitles show late ---

Oh hah. I think you meant this one. - External subtitle offset adjustment support. Guess I missed that announcement, so I take back my previous comment. The feature is available and should be working. If not, please recreate then provide the log from the app. ---

v1.14.1.488 on a Qnap server. On my PC server, I don’t get this feature. I only see it on my Qnap server. ---

Not working for me. Does it have to be a certain type of subtitle file? I rewind the scene to see whether or not the subtitles shows up soon or late, and it still shows up at the exact incorrect time. 2000 ms + or - makes no difference. ---

Okay, it does work. I didn’t realize I needed to go into the 16,000’s. LOL! ---

Did you wait a little after setting the offset? There is a small delay (a fes seconds) before it goes into affect. ---
