Introduction: convert image-based subtitles to SRT with Subtitle Edit

Here is a way to quickly remove any html formattings from inside SRT subtitles.
These are often contained in SRT subtitles obtained from the “interwebs” and may lead to unpredictable behaviour in some Plex clients.

Add a Regular Expression to the custom “Multiple Replace” dialog in Subtitle Edit.
It will remove all types of HTML tags: <[^>]+>
