subtitles get slow

I've had this issue for a long while, even on a different computer and i've used K-Lite Codec Pack. In Media Player Classic and VLC the subtitles for tv shows like Smallville, Heroes, Supernatural, and Merlin all become more delayed or slower over time. Synching solves it temporarily, but i was wondering if anyone knew of a better automatic method?

I'm using Vista and i can't load AVIs in MPC anymore, not sure why- audio only. It doesn't happen for all episodes just certain ones. VLC works fine, but Heroes the subs were fine until episode 5 to 11 when they started getting slower, about 1 second slower every 5-10 minutes. I googled about possible solutions but they got me nowhere.
 
The subtitles get slower because the source they were pulled from is a different framerate than the video you're watching. Apparently there's a program called SubConvertor that can modify SRT files according to framerate.

You're using the original MPC? Dump it and get Homecinema. MPC is a dead-end project. Can probably get rid of K-Lite as well.
 
Thanks for the reply. So just uninstall k-lite, and use MPC-HC without any codecs? Should i use the subconverter for all subs, even if some of the subs are already the proper framerate?
 
hmm, i'm not sure if i'm using the converter properly. i tried 30 fps, 25 fps, and 17 fps. i still have to correct the delay within VLC.
