FA-78074 / Subtitle cue timing / Member archive
Two-point subtitle synchronisation: intercept anchor · case 04
Mapped cues are offset by a constant error unless the first anchor sits at time zero.
Case contract
anchors [[a1,b1],[a2,b2]] (a1 != a2, b1 != b2) map subtitle time a to video time b linearly through both points. Each time is mapped exactly, rounded half up, clamped at 0; cues whose mapped end is not after the mapped start are dropped.
Why this case matters
Subtitle timing defects shift, hide or overlap captions that viewers depend on for comprehension and accessibility.
