Spence's Obi-Wan Kenobi (V4 Final Released)

Oh, the subtitles were very much not edited in parallel with the video and audio. It’s a huge pain in the ass, done after the edit is finished and sync-locked. It’s very “adjust by a quarter second, save, and see how it looks in VLC, repeat.”

I’d imagine that, yeah, 3/4 hours to conform subtitles to Spence’s edit would be about what it would take me.

If you can rip the audio you want to conform, I would suggest syncing the two starting at the start of the movie. Skim ahead until the audio falls out of sync, and adjust. Hopefully the the two remain mostly in sync on their own except when a change occurs, but there will be small points here and there where a frame needs to be removed and glossed over or contrived.
