Hard subtitle removal
Remove subtitles that are burned into the image and cannot be turned off during playback.
Batch Video Hard Subtitle Removal
Remove burned-in subtitles across video batches for continued editing, translation, or subtitle replacement
Before and after
Compare the same representative frame with and without burned-in subtitles. This is an illustrative example; results vary by footage
Service
Process a video batch to one agreed scope, retain source audio by default, and map every result to its source file
Source audio retained
Retain the source video audio by default.
One-to-one file mapping
Keep the base filename for each result to simplify review and continued production.
Why PeelSub
Review representative footage before confirming the full-batch scope and acceptance criteria, reducing one-by-one trial and file organization
Evaluate before batch processing
Review representative footage and confirm the processing scope before starting the full batch.
Batch QA
Check the confirmed scope for missed or incorrect handling and file mapping.
Results mapped one to one
Each source video maps to one processed result with the same base filename.
Which footage is better suited?
Fixed subtitles over continuous backgrounds are generally more stable, while moving subjects, effects, and scene cuts require sample review
Stable subtitle area
Fixed subtitles over continuous, relatively simple backgrounds are better suited to batch processing.
Complex visual area
Subtitles covering people, effects, or scene cuts require representative-footage review first.

Frequently asked questions
Understand the service scope, processing conditions, and material handoff
What are hard subtitles?
Hard subtitles are permanently embedded in the video image and cannot be turned off during playback. Switchable subtitle tracks are not hard subtitles.
Will this affect the source video audio?
Source video audio is retained by default, and the exact delivery scope is confirmed before processing begins.
Which footage is more likely to produce a natural result?
Fixed subtitle areas over continuous, simple backgrounds usually produce more natural results. Footage with moving subjects, effects, or scene cuts requires representative review because results vary by material.
What is the standard deliverable?
An organized set of processed videos. Each source video maps to one result, and the source audio is retained by default.
How are schedule and fees determined?
Schedule and fees depend on video count, total duration, subtitle position, and visual complexity, and are confirmed before processing begins.
How do I hand off video materials?
The website form does not accept videos or media links. We first review the batch scope, then confirm the material handoff method separately.
