Hello,
After reading many posts from your forum and not being able to find a solution to my problem I decided asking. Sorry if it has been solved in the past.
Anytime I try to rip the subtitles from a DVD I always get them with wrong timing. I tried two ways:
-PCGDemux to get the sup
-Vobsub Configure to get the idx+sub
Let me show a sample of what I get and what I should get:
Wrong timing, what I get:

It's very odd...two different ways resulting into the same error...and it's like that all the time. I have added custom subs 8 times so far and the problem is always the same...I end up downloading subs made from someone else and inserting my own lines.
Try using 'DVDSubEdit' on the ripped files.
Run DVDSubEdit, load the VOB files.
Select the desired substream and click 'Run OCR' - then click 'Save as .srt'.
The program has a very good, automatic OCR feature that seems to be accurate.
I have found that if I use DVD Shrink to reauthor (clip frames) and save a DVD, then use VOBSub to get an .idx file, the times reflect the original timing - not the edited times.
I don't know why this happens, or if it's confined to NTSC DVD files.
