Replace Burned-In Subtitles
Budget: $10 – $30 USD
I’m finishing a film in DaVinci Resolve that currently has burned-in subtitles filled with typos. I already have a corrected .srt file; what I need now is a Resolve-savvy editor who can strip out (or mask) the baked-in text and bring the new .srt into the timeline so it plays in perfect sync with the original cues.
Deliverables
• A Resolve project file (.drp or .dra) with the new subtitle track active and the old burned-in track removed or hidden
• The final .srt in case any micro-timing tweaks were required
Acceptance criteria
• No trace of the original burned-in text on screen
• Frame-accurate alignment between dialogue and the new subtitle track
• Style left at Resolve defaults so I can export additional caption formats later
If you’re comfortable handling subtitles inside DaVinci Resolve and can turn this around quickly, let’s get started.
