Unfortunately that method won’t work, as the subtitles are burned-in during parts where Han and Greedo talk in the Cantina. I could easily replace the subtitles where Han is talking, but I can’t replace it during Greedo’s scenes, as it would wipe out the amazing VFX work that Adywan did.
So, it looks like I’m stuck with these subtitles!
I had been hoping to replace the subtitles, so that they would match the original releases, such as what you see on the 4K77 release.

Cheers,

That’s a good idea! I will try that out.
Thanks very much!

The subtitles are actually burned in. But I think the best way to do it, is to got to the end frame where the subtitle fades off, and just take a freeze frame of that and place that part on the rest or the moving footage.
I may actually give it a go later.

How’d it go?
