In order to include the subtitles, you will have to figure out which "subtitle track" is associated with a particular subtitle language in the convert/save screen for dvd's. You can do that with trial and error with regular playback and then choose convert/save when you found the options you'd like to use. The default subtitle track is -1 which seems to indicate no subtitle.
Make sure to check the "No DVD Menus" check box. You can start from a particular title and track, though I would recommend letting it process through the end and then cutting out the desired scene with something like VirtualDub or windows movie maker. Some codecs require some post processing attention which does not seem to work properly if you stop VLC's process prematurely.
You can also just press H and G while the video is running to align the subtitles backward and forward in time; for the voice use J and K. The increments are in milliseconds, so it can be pretty easily fine tuned that way.
By command-line is possible to use the option --sub-delay followed by the number positive or negative of 1/10 of seconds of delay to add. So to shift the subtitle of 3 second you can run vlc with the following command line
However, if you want more functions and possibility to save synchronization permanently in your subtitle file, then you would need to use tools such as Subtitle Workshop (Windows only) or Jubler (Java cross-platform).
My answer I just did this works great: start the movie and add the subtitle file as normal. Then, go "tools" select "Track Synchronization" then you have options to delay or advance(start earlier) the subtitle file by as many seconds as you want! Keep fiddling with it until the first statement and first subtitle aligln. Easy.
Because it runs in the browser, SubSync has no installation hassles, and doesn't care what browser or OS you're using. It only takes a couple of minutes to synchronise before settling down for a couple of hours to watch the movie, so I find it's worth doing as a matter of course.
I'm not sure about other OSes, but with Linux, if your subtitles are embedded within the video file (*.mkv or whatever), it's easy to extract them into a file for SubSync using ffmpeg. At the terminal...
Regardless of which Apple TV show I am watching whether it be Tehran or Truth about 60 seconds after I press play the subtitles disappear. If I exit out of the shell or out of the Apple TV app and re-enter and press play again once again for about 60 seconds it will display the close captions. This does not necessarily matter in his show in which I understand the language, but it does matter when I watch Tehran. How do I fix this problem? It only happens in my Apple TV app.
Unfortunately, doesn't seem like this issue is getting any attention by Apple. I will add, the problem has most often occurred for me on my iPad Pro when I have tried to skip forward or back multiple times in the same episode. With Invasion, I paused multiple times to try and increase the screen brightness (a losing battle). After that start/stop/skip situation, the subtitles would completely crap out. Then I'd pause/rewind trying to get the subtitles back (selecting always on or recommended etc). Even force closing the app and restarting. The only solution was to give up and try another day. They *would be back on a follow up viewing.
The best advice is to disable and enable subtitles, which can partially work for up to a day. But still only partially, as you get subtitles sometimes and then they disappear. Switching between size and type of font sometimes works for a day, but still only partially. With a show like MacBeth, I need subtitles the whole show (because I was born in the 20th century). My biggest question is why? I thought streaming services had this figured out years ago. Maybe Apple needs to hire a tech company to explain to Apple how to fix this.
Same issue. Sony Bravia TV with Apple TV app. I enable regular English subtitles for all programs due to hearing issues. With the Invasion series, the English subtitles for English-speaking characters work consistently. But the Japanese to English translations for characters speaking Japanese disappear in the middle of dialogue. If I reset everything the Japanese translation subtitles come back, but only for a few moments. Very annoying.
I absolutely agree with EdDC! We are having the same issue and gave up watching Macbeth last night because of this issue. Previously, watching "For All Mankind" the subtitles/closed-captioning would disappear after about 30 seconds, but then if we paused the video and backed it up a bit (to catch that missed bit of dialog), the subtitles would come back and be fine for the rest of the episode. That's not the case with Macbeth; the subtitles go away and come back erratically. We're using an Amazon Fire Stick with the Apple TV app.
Same issue here. Subtiles drops after some minutes or so, and I have to change subtitles to other language and then back again. Very frustrating. My ATV+ app is installed on Nvdia Shield 2016 unit and updated to the newest version.
I've been having this issue for a while now on my TCL. Apple TV+ is too much of a resource hog for the built-in Roku, so I'm running it through my Fire Stick 4K. But same thing, works for a short while then nothing. Very frustrating for a show like Invasion, that seems to speaks every language there is. I've turned the captions from Off to Auto to English over and over, the result is always the same. I'm guessing, that those with Apple TV devices aren't having any issues.
I'm having the same issue. I've timed it multiple times, from the time I start video with subtitles until they disappear. It's about 50-60 seconds. If I exit the video (Foundation in this case) and go to Apple TV+ settings - Accessibility - Subtitles and captions, change the setting and go back to the video, they work and then disappear again after 50-60 seconds. I tried other shows, like Ted Lasso, and the same problem occurs. I'm using a Firestick with the Apple TV+ app in the 'man cave', both with the latest software updates. The Apple TV app on my Samsung TV doesn't have this problem, so thinking it might be the Firestick, I was going to purchase another Firestick, until I found this thread. Turned Firestick subtitles off and on, to no avail. Very frustrating.
It seems to me that the issue is more frequent when one pauses the video and turns it on again. But the frequency is hard to predict and thus recreate 1:1.. but happens multiple times while watching fx. Ted Lasso atm. Also DRM issues happens a couple of times. I have an ATV+ 3 month trial after buying new iphone. Sadly not going to prolong the trial if issue is not fixed by then. Otherwise nice service.
Dropped subtitles are especially irritating when watching Macbeth, where it helps to see the words visually. We go back and forth to settings and reset, trying different fonts and transparency level, but nothing works. We gave up on the show. I like subtitles for all shows, by the way, since I misunderstand words from time to time.
Ive got the same problem. After a few minutes the subtitles vanish, ive tried polish, english and hard of hearing subtitles - switching subtitles works only for a while and then the subs vanish again. (Suspicion and Afterparty)
- select patch of sky without any target / nebulosity and as empty as possible (odd faint star here or there should not be a problem). Measure median value in that patch of the sky. If patch is completely void of objects you can also use mean value, but median is better as it will remove impact of few stars if there are any.
Point of choosing particularly long exposure length is to make read noise smaller than any of the other noise sources. In particular, above approach is targeting LP noise - that is why we measure background levels - to see how much LP there is (and consequently what is associated noise).
If you calculate your sub to be short - there is no drawback in going longer as far as image quality goes (you will have less data and that is good for storage, but some algorithms like more data to work with, so get at least 20-30 subs in any case. Also - with longer subs if something goes wrong - you throw away more data)
Just experiment really based on what youre imaging and your conditions (as no one else can really advise on the latter, only their own circumstances), I have diminishing returns reaching the 3 minute plus mark in LRGB due to light pollution. Shooting narrowband on the other hand does benefit from around 5 minute subs plus. You could always take more images rather than extend the sub duration. I tried the Iris but couldn't do more than 2 minutes per image from a Bortle 7, so only got the initial dust around the bright central star.
Honestly I doubt that you even need 3min subs, 2min would be my pick and should burry read noise at unity gain on that camera at that sky class. Just would not require longer unless you are needing to reduce file storage. However as there is little disadvantage to going longer with that camera you need to choose between ease of guiding and storage essentially.
