-a, --align-method=METHOD
Method used to align translation file's subtitle texts with main document's subtitles. Possible values are 'number' and 'position'.

Existing subtitles are skipped and new ones inserted as needed. 'number' discards position information and inserts the N translation texts into the first N subtitles.
