Remove permanent subs from AVI?

[storebror]

Hi. Added some subs to my AVI but unfortunatly i did it little bit wrong. Now, is there a way to "roll back" that error and reprocess my AVI and remove the subs for a correct replace? What tools, how to do it etc..

Thx Buddies, U All ROck:p

Do you mean you hardcoded them? If so where's the original? If you deleted it you are just going to have to re-encode the AVI and just add the subs over the wrong ones.

I have a similar problem, several avi's downloaded with English dialogue but foreign language hardcoded subs which I would like to remove, then convert avi to DVD without the annoying subs. Is there a filter of some kind I can run avi's through to get rid of the hardcoded subs.

David, please respect rule #6.

Store, there really isn't anything you can do. You might try motion compensating them away (but that'll make everything around them look ugly), or just add a black bar over the entire area before you put your new subs in; but you'd be better off just recapturing.
