Sometimes the subtitle timing is off, either showing captions before characters speak, or after.<\/p>\n<p>You can fix this using free programs, and build the captions right into the iTunes file. This won&#8217;t strip FairPlay DRM, but it will allow you to add your own captions, since Apple\/iTunes can&#8217;t be bothered to ensure all movies and shows are Closed Captioned outside the US.<\/p>\n<p>I use <a href=\"http:\/\/jubler.org\">Jubler subtitle editor<\/a> for adjusting the timing on subrip (.srt) files, and <a href=\"https:\/\/subler.org\">Subler<\/a> for adding the subtitle file to iTunes movies.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-328ngo-850f0769c7fc92383928ca933e6c9139\">\n.flex_column.av-328ngo-850f0769c7fc92383928ca933e6c9139{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-328ngo-850f0769c7fc92383928ca933e6c9139 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-1  el_after_av_textblock  avia-builder-el-last  first flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  column-top-margin'     ><style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-kb2b004h-bef10084bd003cec8dcbdceeaf6a3b9e\">\n.avia-video.av-kb2b004h-bef10084bd003cec8dcbdceeaf6a3b9e{\nbackground-image:url(https:\/\/mark-sweeney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/StartFrame-853x640.png);\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-video av-kb2b004h-bef10084bd003cec8dcbdceeaf6a3b9e avia-video-4-3 av-preview-image avia-video-load-always avia-video-html5'  itemprop=\"video\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/VideoObject\"  data-original_url='https:\/\/mark-sweeney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/CC_Time_Shift_sm.mp4'><video class='avia_video' poster=\"https:\/\/mark-sweeney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/StartFrame-853x640.png\"   preload=\"auto\"  controls id='player_1416_57094460_259664008'><source src='https:\/\/mark-sweeney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/CC_Time_Shift_sm.mp4' type='video\/mp4' \/><\/video><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1556,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[65,58],"tags":[40,54,63,64,62],"class_list":["post-1416","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-accessibility","category-closed-captioning","tag-closed-captions","tag-itunes","tag-jubler","tag-subler","tag-subtitles"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mark-sweeney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1416","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mark-sweeney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mark-sweeney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mark-sweeney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mark-sweeney.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1416"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/mark-sweeney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1416\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":29941,"href":"https:\/\/mark-sweeney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1416\/revisions\/29941"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mark-sweeney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/1556"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mark-sweeney.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1416"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mark-sweeney.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1416"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mark-sweeney.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1416"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
