## Primeiros passos

### Iniciando o Gnome Subtitles

Você pode iniciar o Gnome Subtitles das seguintes maneiras:

Menu aplicativos

- Choose Sound & Video Gnome Subtitles .

Linha de comando

- Type `gnome-subtitles` `filename` and press Enter.

  The `filename` argument is optional. If specified, the application will open that file when starting.

## Trabalhando com arquivos

### Criando um novo documento de legenda

1. Go to File New .

   Um novo arquivo deve abrir no editor

### Abrindo um arquivo

1. Go to File Open .

   A janela de abrir arquivo deve aparecer

2. Select the subtitle file you wish to open.

   1. If you want to specify the file's character coding, choose one from the Character Coding list. If not specified, the caracter coding will be auto detected.

   2. If you want to choose a video to open immediately, choose a video from the Video list.

When selecting a video, you can only choose from the videos in the current directory. If the video you want to open is not in the same directory as the subtitle file, you can open the video after opening the subtitle file.

### Salvando um arquivo

You can either save a file normally, or use Save As to set different options.

1. Go to File Save .

   A janela de abrir arquivo deve aparecer

If you are saving a new file, the Save As window will appear

### Salvando como um novo arquivo

1. Go to File Save As .

   The Save As window should open

2. Enter a new name for your subtitle file

3. If you would like to save the file in a different location, browse to the new location in the file browser

4. If you would like to save the file in a format other than the format listed in the Subtitle Format list, choose a different format.

5. If you would like to save the file in a character encoding other than your default encoding which is listed, change the encoding in the character encoding list.

6. Click Save

### Selecting a character encoding

If you use special characters in your subtitle file, you will want to make sure that your file is saved in an encoding that supports those characters.

Saving a file in a character encoding that does not support the special characters will cause loss of character data. This occurs when you try to save multi-byte characters in a single byte character encoding.

### Editing subtitle headers

Some subtitle formats have file headers that contain information about the file. You can edit these fields in Gnome Subtitles by

1. Go to File Headers .

   The Headers window will open. It has 4 tabs on it.

2. Select the tab that corresponds to the format of your subtitle file

3. Fill in appropriate fields.

4. When you are done entering header data in, click OK

## Manipulating Subtitles

1. Go to View Frames .

### To use Time units

1. Go to View Times .

### Adjusting Timings

1. If you want to adjust the timings of only some subtitles, select the subtitles that you want to adjust the timing of

2. Go to Timings Adjust .

3. Choose the new starting time of the first subtitle and the new starting time of the last subtitle

### Shifting Timings

Shifting timings allows you to moves one or more subtitles ahead or behind by a specific amount. Unlike the Adjust subtitles feature, Shifting subtitles does not affect the duration of the subtitles.

### To use shift subtitles

1. Select which subtitle(s) you want to shift. If you want to shift the time/frame of one subtitle and/or all subtitles before or after a specific subtitle, select that subtitle. If you want to shift more than one specific subtitles, select all of the subtitles that you want to shift.

2. Go to Timings Shift .

3. Enter in the amount of time (or frames, if you are using the frame unit) to adjust your subtitles by. If you want to move the subtitles back, enter a negative value, otherwise, enter a positive value.

4. Select how you want to shift your subtitles.

5. Click Shift to shift the subtitles.

### Setting the Input and Video Framerates

When you open a video, Gnome Subtitles does not automatically set the framerate of the video.

Gnome Subtitles manipulates subtitles based on time, regardless of view mode. Therefore, when you change the video frame rate, Gnome Subtitles adjusts the frames to compensate for the change. The duration of the subtitle remains the same.

If your subtitle format uses frames to determine when a subtitle is dispayed (MicroDVD), changing the video framerate may cause your subtitles to lose their sync.

### To set the video framerate

1. Go to Timings Video Frame Rate and select the appropriate framerate.

### To set the input framerate

1. Go to Timings Input Frame Rate and select the appropriate framerate.
