For those looking to watch -1’s Silver Screen Edition of Star Wars with subtitles, here are the instructions:
-
Get a relatively recent version of Project Threepio
-
Edit the resync_subs.pl file in the perl folder (it’s a text file, Notepad will do)
-
Find the line that starts with $adjhash{‘NEG1-SW’} and replace it with the block of text below (no linebreaks)
-
Follow the instructions in the README.html under the section “How to synchronize subtitles to a different video frame reference” (you will need to install a Perl runtime at the very least, and possibly a Java runtime)
-
Be sure to replace the FRAME_REF placefolder with NEG1 to indicate which new frame reference you’re using
$adjhash{'NEG1-SW'}='0=+42.099#29:36.485=-.501#31:23.258=-.167#38:45.075=-.209#38:59.214=-.042#39:34.291=-.042#40:38.939=-.167#42:09.655=-.042#45:01.493=-.042#49:00.691=-.083#54:40.948=-.042#58:00.48=-.167#1:00:14.364=-2.419#1:19:00.115=-.083#1:19:00.24=-.167#1:40:08.133=-.083#1:40:08.258=-.125';
This modified script will be included in the next Project Threepio release, but the default subtitles will always be GOUT-synced and require adjustment for non-GOUT-synced video.
Special thanks to Chewtobacca and Darth Mallwalker for providing the list of missing GOUT frames that made creating this script a piece of cake.
