Is it possible to format srt files correctly?
The correct way is shown below.
1st line: number
2nd line: timing
3rd line: subtitle line 1
4th line: subtitle line 2
5th line: blank

Although you will have various kind of
spiritual experiences during these talks.
28
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:38,700
But the basic purpose of this is self knowledge.
The topic of Vedanta is you. It's who you are.
29
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:48,420
Not you as a person but you as
you're true self as who you really are.

How are the errors created? E.g., manual input, database query, computer transcription from audio, etc.? I’m not familiar with srt files, so I don’t have a picture of your workflow. In general it’s best to catch errors when they’re created, rather than passing them on to the next user.
If you’re stuck with no control over how the files come to you, do the error examples you gave cover the full range of corrections needed?
This might need either multiple find/replace ops, or perhaps would be better handled with a script (Applescript, Perl, Javascript) or a BBEdit text factory…
No matter which, BBEdit gives you a good framework for it.

It doesn’t matter to which of the two lines it belongs, as long as the two lines have about the same lenght.
