looking for tool to remove text from subtitle file

[klendathu]

hi community,

im looking for a tool that removes the text from a subtitle file and leaves only the timecode/timestamp as a text/srt file or any other subtitle file format.

ive found a online tool, which can handle this, but im looking for a application which runs from hard disk.

heres the url to the online tool

Sincerly

The tool does the opposite of what you said?

Either way, Subtitle Edit can do both jobs.
Remove text: ctrl+a, right-click->"Column"->"Delete text". Save.
Remove timecodes: "File"->"Export"->"Plain text"

sorry, youre right xD didnt see ^^

thanks for your recommendation. does subtitle edit the job automatically for all lines without i have to do it for every single text line manually?

ctrl+a is for selecting all lines at once.

thanks!

i have proplems with this one':

Remove text: ctrl+a, right-click->"Column"->"Delete text". Save

when i do this, a window opens, but i cant find the entry "column" or "delete text".

there is for example "delete", "copy to clipboard" etc...

Please have a look.

Maybe we are using two different versions of the software and i downloaded a older version?

what version do you use?

3.5.8
Your version is 7 years old.

thank you! Ive downloaded version 358 and it worked. Thank you very much.

If you could help me with another question i have?

I have now the timestamps without text. Now i want to fit a text to the timestamps. i want it to work automatic so that i dont have to separate the text line by line.

example: there are 100 timestamps and my text has 50 lines. the result should be that the text fits the 100 timestamps. i hope you understand what i mean...

Open text file in a text editor, ctrl+a -> ctrl+c (select all, copy to clipboard). In Subtitle Edit right-click on the first line->Column->Paste from clipboard.


(There are other ways. E.g. open file with text first. Then "File"->"Import time codes".)

Thank you very much.

How can you make the text fitting the amount of timestamps? so that no text or timestamps get deketed?
