Subtitle Edit 4.0.4

[kalehrl]

There is 'visual sync' option where you use 2 points for sync - at the beginning of the video and at the end for best results.

Does anything that's not an Apple product actually work with these things?

[ndjamena]

FFMPEG can see them and attempts to convert them to ASS when muxing to an MKV but ultimately the subtitle track comes out empty.

I have a strange problem with version 3.4.7 when I make OCR on french DVB-SUB ;
"J'ai gagné !" becomes "♪ ai gagné !"
Most of the J' are considered as the music symbol ♪
It's strange because in the "All fixes" part in OCR window, I see the correct spelling on the left and the bad correction on the right, whatever I check or not "fix OCR errors" (I use french dictionnary).
I guess it means that the correct spelling is detected but is wrongly corrected for some reasons, while no correction is needed in this case.
And if I don't choose french dictionnary and choose none, this problem disappear and the J' stay as is.
But I need it because if I let on none, I get other errors that I don't get when I choose french dictionnary.

Does it mean the french dictionnary is bugged ?

Something else : after OCR is done, I click on OK and I get this message : "do you want to discard changes made in current OCR session ?"
If I choose no, nothing happens, and if I chose yes, the OCR window closes and the text appears in the main window with the changes, as usual, thus I don't understand why I get this message

Looks like a bug to me. I've gone back to v3.4.6, but I'll gladly persist with v3.4.7 if, as you say, clicking "yes" does not result in changes being discarded.

@Music Fan
As french user also, i want to know if this issue is specific to 3.4.7, or does it happen also with 3.4.6 ?

[Nikse555]

@Music Fan: thx for reporting the discard message after pressing OK - it's a bug - should be fixed on latest version on GitHub and also here: http://www.nikse.dk/SubtitleEdit.zip (beta, no installer)
Also, could you email me the sub that makes problems with music nodes?

[Music Fan]

Thanks for the fix, no message anymore.
But OCR on the sup I created yesterday (Blu-ray sup export from TS without OCR) is less well done than with 3.4.7 on some lines : ? is sometimes considered as 'I
edit : I can't reproduce this problem, no problem with the ? now

Look at this sup file (exported in Blu-ray sup from a TS file, no OCR was done, created with v3.4.7) ;
http://www31.zippyshare.com/v/p6pYpzXt/file.html
Same subtitles but exported this time with your last beta version (again without OCR) ;
http://www25.zippyshare.com/v/81vGbafc/file.html
The result of the OCR with this sup is exactly the same than when done from the original TS.

@ jpsdr : I don't know, I didn't try 3.4.6.

[Music Fan]

Nikse555, did you find why J' become ♪ (with the sup I posted here) ?

[Thunderbolt8]

could you please provide an example how the syntac structure has to look for this and how it is supposed to work out exactly? "Remove text for HI - "Remove if text contains" now allows multiple items separated by comma or semicolon" ?

I still have my J' problem but it's ok if I uncheck "music symbol" in the OCR window ! I don't remember if this option was already present in previous versions.
Anyway, ♪ can also be converted to J' with the "multiple replace" option.

[Thunderbolt8]

I'd like to request an option for blocking parts of a sentence from HI removal if you feel they belong together. e.g. I have 'oh' in the interjections list, but I dont want to remove it from "oh, my god" or "oh well", "oh boy" and such. currently, I still have to go through each subtitle line marked for HI removal manually and see if there is some line I need to untick and process manually. its quite tiring, especially when doing it for whole TV series like for example all 86 episode subtitle files from the sopranos. this improvement could save me a lot of time here.

Hi Nikse555,

Is there a possibility to give a color to the breakline tag <br /> and italic tags <i> and </i> in the list view?

I am asking this here because I know what an excellent and powerful application this is and would love to use it for this task.
I am trying to convert a .itt file to .ssa and then change the height of the subtitles, top and bottom.
I have attached 2 files, Subtitles_da.itt and Subtitles_da.ssa (attached to this post in a zip file).
I am trying to alter the vertical position of the bottom and top subtitles so that neither comes into the blanking of the video file. So basically I need to make the bottom subtitle higher and the top subtitle lower. I don't think this is possible to do in .itt files, so my question is how do I do this in the Sub Station Alpha file?
I have also attached some screen grabs to show what I am trying to do (attached to this post in a zip file).
Let me know if there's any more info I can provide.
I appreciate any help you could offer.

Kind regards.

I ripped subs from the movie BD Interstellar (2014) and in SE OCR'ed them for editing reasons.

Now, this film has both 16:9 and (approx.) 2.40:1 footage.
Remuxing to mkv I leave video intact so PAR will stay 1:1, AR will stay 16:9 with most of the footage having black bars.
So, when exporting to SUP, I'd like to have the possibility to give some subtitles a different bottom offset.
I know this can be manually done with BDSup2Sub, but the workflow is rather unhandy and quite laboursome to me.

I'd like the idea of (in this case) selecting the concerning subs and give them another offset than the rest.

Any ideas?

Cheers

lines which contain only numbers (and characters as - + / { ...) are considered as uppercase lines in removal of hearing impaired stuff with "remove line if UPPERCASE" ticked. I guess this is not meant to happen.
