It's getting impossible to watch a specific show as an English learner (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Sites with closed captions are a challenge to find; I've managed for a bit, and I found great ones.

However, now I'm trying to watch a show called Tokyo Vice where open subtitles aren't working, and I have to find Nova ones.

However, sites that have them don't work 99% of the time for this show; I've tried hundreds.

The frustration of not being able to watch a show and chill before bed is huge; this show I quoted isn't even available in my country.

So yeah... This was my rant.

Some players can shift timing of the subtitles. Then you can just adjust timing of any subtitles with correct framerate. You can even adjust the framerate. Once you learn how to do it, it's fast and simple.
