Intertitle edits the movies you already own without re-encoding them. Cut the scene, silence the line, put up a card that says what you missed. A 4K film renders in a couple of minutes with zero quality loss, subtitles and chapters intact.
Free and open source (MIT). Needs ffmpeg and MKVToolNix installed. macOS and Linux builds coming later.
The range disappears. The movie gets shorter and everything after it shifts up, subtitles included.
The range is cut and a text card takes its place, for ten seconds, or exactly as long as the original if you prefer.
The picture becomes a card while the dialogue and music carry on. Nothing changes length.
The picture stays, the audio goes quiet for exactly the range you mark. Real silence in the same codec, so the rest of the track is untouched.
Every button shows its keyboard shortcut when you hover it. Edit lists save as a small CSV next to the movie and load again automatically. Works on 4K HEVC, Dolby Vision, Atmos, TrueHD, DTS, 35 subtitle tracks, the lot.
The same engine ships as intertitle-cli for scripts and headless boxes. Edit lists are plain CSV you can write by hand.
