Subtitles split incorrectly

I’m having a problem on YT, where the translated subtitles provided by LR have a word or a part of a sentence tucked at the end, that belongs to an upcoming sentence, often from a next scene. When these actual words are spoken on screen, and the original language subtitles appear, I get either the rest of the sentence or just a “-” in translation, if it was a larger chunk.

There is a full minute between “Why” and the rest of the sentence in the next scene, spoken in a completely different context. I can’t add another screenshot, but the first subtitle in this next scene also already has a word at the end that doesn’t belong there.

Mandarin to English. Link to this particular moment but it’s happening in every YT video I’ve watched so far (latest Opera with Chrome extensions enabled). Is there a workaround for this issue? Anybody experiencing this as well?

Did you manage to fix it or something? The same thing started happening to me about 2 weeks ago. I’ve been using the extension for half a year, and it had never happened.

Unfortunately not. If anything it seems to be getting worse, now it’s also grouping previously skipped phrases together at random points. But at least it’s good to know that it’s a new occurence. What browser are you using? I’m thinking maybe I should install Chrome and see if there is any difference.

Hello everyone!
Thank you for the detailed reports and examples. We can see that this is a real issue related to how translated subtitles are segmented (words from the next sentence sometimes appear at the end of the current translation). We are looking into this matter.
I forwarded this issue to the team for fix! Thanks!

That sounds like a subtitle segmentation issue rather than an Opera-specific problem. If the translated track is consistently carrying words across scene boundaries, the timing or sentence splitting in the LR translation is likely off. As a quick test, try the same video in another browser with extensions disabled. If the same subtitle chunks appear, the problem is likely in the translation track itself rather than your setup.
