Description

I've used the online service "amara.org" to create subtitles for a number of videos. I copied the SRT-text and saved it on a subtitle page on Commons, but when I watch it the text is really out of sync. When I managed to sync it I looked at the timecode in my video editing programme, and there are huge differences between the time code in the programme and on Commons.

Version: unspecified
Severity: normal
OS: Windows 7

I think we rely on the Kultura HTML5 video player which possibly has sync problems for timed text.

Also see bug 49408 (maybe related)
