Add Subtitles not with "Handbrake"

[keyboard]

Hello,
I am trying to hardcode a Hebrew subtitle to a movie with "Videopad Video Editor".
Some lines are "Italic" stile, so the "Italic" signs are shown on the movie.
In "Handbrake", these signs are not visible, but the black shadow is ugly, so I prefer the "Videopad".
How can I make these "Italic" signs invisible with "Videopad" ? (If its possible)
Answers will be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi.
What format is your subs track?

A quick read of this might help with understanding subs. It did for me.
https://forum.videohelp.com/threads/350842-Two-line-srt-subtitles-can-one-be-italic
The last post was interesting; what with having further text AFTER the italics.

I add .srt subs using either ffmpeg for .mp4 output;

@echo off
:: Video track must have matching 'track name.srt'
if not exist New\*.* md New
for %%a in ("*.mp4", "*.mkv") do if exist "%%~na.srt" ffmpeg.exe -hide_banner -i "%%a" -sub_charenc ISO-8859-1 -i "%%~na.srt" -map 0:v -map 0:a -map 1 -c:v copy -c:a copy -c:s mov_text -metadata:s:s:0 language=eng "New\%%a"
pause

Or using mkvmerge for .mkv output;

@echo off
:: Video track must have matching 'track name.srt'
if not exist New\*.* md New
for %%a in ("*.mp4", "*.mkv") do if exist "%%~na.srt" "C:\Program Files\MKVToolNix\mkvmerge.exe" --ui-language en --output "New\%%~na.mkv" --language 0:eng --language 1:eng "%%~na.mp4" --language 0:eng "%%~na.srt" --track-order 0:0,0:1,1:0
pause

Cheers.

If the sub is srt run them through subtitle edit/edit to remove all the italic tags.

And, these are my two batch files to extract subtitles as srt.

From an mp4;

ffmpeg.exe -hide_banner -i "Video Name.mp4" -map 0:s -scodec srt "Video Name.srt"
pause

From an mkv;

@echo off
echo.
echo Example:
echo Stream #0:2(eng): Subtitle: subrip
echo Stream #0:3(bul): Subtitle: subrip
echo Stream #0:4(chi): Subtitle: subrip
echo e.g. To extract "Stream #0:4(chi): Subtitle: subrip" - Enter index number 4

echo.
echo Streams found:
ffmpeg -i "Video Name.mkv" -y nul 2>&1 | find /i "stream"
set /p idx=What index number?
ffmpeg -i "Video Name.mkv" -map "0:%idx%" -scodec srt "Video Name.srt"
pause

Cheers.
