is there a way to get rid of subtitles without using Adobe?

Well, like the title says, I've got a bti of an issue with subtitles. As many of you know, Adobe Premiere gets rid of the subtitles but somewhere around here, I read that there's another way.

If there is another way, could someone please inform me? Thank you in advance!

I assume you've already read this: Subtitle & Logo Removal Guide
by Zarxrax and Machine?

If you don't mind losing some of the image at the bottom and possibly the sides, you could crop the subs out in VirtualDub, either before while making clips, or after in post-production. That is the easiest way, and also using AviSynth, you can get better results than using VirtualDub's built in filters. You can also resize the results to 640x480 or whatever resolution you are using to match any other footage you are using.
