This feature allows you to connect this app to VLC media player

If such connection is established, playback of the movie and Subtitles Robot page are always in sync. You can stop movie in player, move forward and back, restart again - subtitles position will be automatically adjusted. VLC player is available on all major platforms and supports various media file formats.
