Recording subtitles

[Rob van der Does]

Yes, I have been playing with sync on the DVB subtitles but it is proving difficult. With one recording I had to go to a delay of 20s and it still was not quite in sync.

Yes, it sure is difficult, and when the time laps is large, it will take you some time.

There is such variability too. Maybe there is a standard delay on each channel but at the moment it seems extremely cumbersome.

It is variable, absolutely. But remember it's a fault of the provider, and this fault is really not standard (not per provider & not per service). And then again you'll notice that the fault has (temporally?) gone, and timing is fine.

Is there likely to be better performance with a different image?

No. ViX is one of the few images that has this option at all.

And again: don't blame us or the hardware; it's the provider you should blame.

Tip: Maybe you can use other services?
BBC has multiple services, and maybe they differ in this respect. Or switch between DVB-C//T/S if you have those options.
