Plex Will Now Fix Your Out-Of-Sync Subtitles (www.howtogeek.com)

Plex introduced an Auto-Sync Subtitles feature that aligns subtitles with audio using an algorithm that detects voices, supporting external SRT files and those from OpenSubtitles.com.

The feature requires a Plex Pass subscription, voice activity detection, and media analysis enabled on the server, but won't work on some systems like FreeBSD, Nvidia Shield, and certain NAS servers.

Plex is expanding its app offerings, including a new dedicated photos app in open beta, and currently offers a 20% discount on Lifetime Plex Pass subscriptions.

You should. It's worth it

Source:have had it for ages.

Hw transcode and skip credits. (Plexamp used to be here too ) Makes it worth it imho

Hw transcoding requires paid version? Thought this was in the free one all along

Edit oh nvm, I found it on the website. Welp guess I’m buying it

Nah unfortunately hardware transcode via igpu like quick sync on Intel is Plex pass only.

Also paid for lifetime maybe 3 or 4 years ago. No regrets, it has served me and my family well

What I'd like is the ability to fix out-of-sync audio. My wife won't watch movies/tv/etc on Plex (on Roku) because some part of it creates an audio delay, and it really bothers her that the audio doesn't match the lip movement.

I've tried all sorts of settings, both server and client. It mostly only seems to affect my Roku, though, so that seems to be the issue. I just want to add a small video delay or something.

at least on Apple TV you can adjust the audio offset in the plex player. I think it's a universal feature, give it a shot.

I have had similar issues with Plex on my Nvidia shield. Changing the audio track often helps

just put a delay in the image

Do you have a way to do that? I don't see any settings that allow that, which is why I posted.

Or did you mean just re-encode all of my video files with a delay to fix the one device that has an issue?
