Synchronize subtitles with video with MPlayer

I have a subtitles file which is not in sync with the video. Luckily mplayer has an option -subdelay which shifts the subtitles by the number of seconds specified. To find out the delay, read the time of the first entry in the subtitles file, then minus the time that entry is spoken in the video. For me I had to move the subtitles forward by 139 seconds, so it’s,

$ gmplayer -subdelay 139 file.avi
