Frequently asked questions
What is SRT Cleaner?
SRT Cleaner is a free online tool that removes unwanted formatting, HTML tags, hearing-impaired descriptions (SDH), watermarks, and other artifacts from SRT subtitle files.
Is my subtitle file safe?
Yes! All processing is done entirely in your browser. Your subtitle file is never uploaded to any server, ensuring complete privacy and security.
What kind of formatting can be removed?
The tool can remove HTML tags (bold, italic, font/color), SubStation Alpha formatting ({\f4}), SDH elements like [music] and (laughing), speaker labels, watermarks, and music note indicators.
What does 'Remove SDH' do?
SDH stands for 'Subtitles for the Deaf and Hard-of-hearing'. These subtitles include descriptions of sounds and music in brackets or parentheses. The Remove SDH option strips these descriptions, turning SDH subtitles into regular subtitles.
What does the 'Fix uppercase' option do?
Some subtitles have all text in UPPERCASE. This option converts them to normal sentence case, intelligently capitalizing the first letter of sentences and the word 'I'.
Do I need to install any software?
No installation is needed. SRT Cleaner runs entirely in your web browser. Just visit the page, upload your file, select your cleaning options, and download the cleaned result.
