VirtualDub MSU Subtitle Remover3.0 beta 2

VirtualDub MSU Subtitle Remover was designed as a plugin for VirtualDub, which aims to remove subtitles from videos during playback. It manages to do so without altering the quality of the film being played.Movies with incorporated subtitles are controversial: while they can be useful to some users (for instance, when trying to learn foreign languages), they can also be highly irritating to others. Those belonging to the second category can make use of third-party software that can remove annoying subtitles, such as VirtualDub MSU Subtitle Remover.This is a VirtualDub plugin, so there’s the first requirement you need to fulfil in order to run it. Since it’s an extension, it involves a number of steps you’ll have to perform manually.Here’s a short summary of how to accommodate the plugin on your system: first off, extract the filter to VirtualDub’s plugin folder, then start the application and provide it with the video to be cleaned of subtitles. Immediately after, you’ll have to add the filter to the plugins list by navigating to Video - > Filters -> Add.At this point, a window should pop up, allowing you to make the first acquaintance with the program’s simple, yet user-friendly interface. As you will surely notice, there are several options related to subtitles here, including the detection area, the subtitle outline contrast and sensitivity, as well as the possibility to select a preset (depending on the subtitle’s appearance, especially the contrast between cont and outline colors).However, if none of the presets fit, you can always select the custom option, which provides you with the freedom to personalize the way subtitles are detected.As soon as you’ve configured the plugin, you can check if the removal was correct by pressing the ‘Go with playback’ button of VideoDub. If the subtitles are still visible, return to the plugin’s settings and tweak them over and over until you accomplish the result.To conclude, VirtualDub MSU Subtitle Remover makes a great choice if you need to clean a movie of subtitles. It could take a while until you remove all of them, but results are truly worth it.
