Page-specific guidance
What to check for this text-removal job.
Confirm the subtitle type
Try turning captions off in the player and inspect the source timeline. If the text disappears, remove or disable the track. If it remains in a frame export, it is burned into the picture.
Select changing subtitle positions
Subtitle blocks may move upward around lower thirds, speaker labels, or on-screen graphics. Use the smallest region that contains each layout and split the timeline when the text position changes.
Prepare for relocalization
After cleanup, add new subtitles from an accurate transcript and keep them as a separate track when the destination supports it. Separate captions are easier to translate, correct, style, and disable.
Specific guidance
Details for this exact video-cleanup task.
Confirm the subtitle type
Try turning captions off in the player and inspect the source timeline. If the text disappears, remove or disable the track. If it remains in a frame export, it is burned into the picture.
Also check whether the MOV includes an alpha channel, HDR, ProRes, or unusual audio requirements. Wipe AI outputs H.264 MP4, so preserve the source when those properties matter.
Select changing subtitle positions
Subtitle blocks may move upward around lower thirds, speaker labels, or on-screen graphics. Use the smallest region that contains each layout and split the timeline when the text position changes.
Test shots with faces, hands, products, or fine patterns behind the captions. These areas are less forgiving than a stable wall or sky.
Prepare for relocalization
After cleanup, add new subtitles from an accurate transcript and keep them as a separate track when the destination supports it. Separate captions are easier to translate, correct, style, and disable.
Review timing and reading order before export. Removing old captions does not automatically create or translate a new subtitle file.
Frequently asked questions

No. Wipe AI product facts specify H.264 MP4 output at up to 1080p.
No. The workflow removes visible text. Translation and creation of new timed captions are separate tasks.
Test that shot first. Large occlusions over faces or detailed motion can produce artifacts because the true pixels are hidden.

Text removal estimates hidden pixels. Focused selections give the model more useful surrounding context.
Use the clean source when possibleA clean re-export from the original project preserves the actual pixels.
Test a difficult section firstCheck faces, hands, camera motion and scene changes before a long job.
Only edit authorized footageTechnical removal does not change copyright or attribution duties.
