EDLMaker Reviews

I use EDL maker to read SRT subtitle files and extract the timings of swear words based upon a predefined list of words into an EDL file. EDL maker provides a list of profanities to start with and this can be modified. The generated EDL timings file can then be placed in the same location and with the same name as the video file. When played through Kodi it automatically mutes the volume at the time of the swear words. Thank you so much for developing! I use this all of the time. I can't see a way of contacting the author but have you considered making a timer app that could import an EDL file and mute the PC master volume based upon the timings in the EDL file? iF started at the same time as the streaming video, this could the be used to mute swearing on streaming platforms like Amazon and Apple TV.

Great barebones program which allows you to scan a subtitle file (.srt) for profanity and create an Edit Data List (.edl file) which, when used with mplayer, will allow you to skip or mute the profanity as the movie plays. You can use free Mplayer (mplayerhq.hu). Use the command line version. Type cmd in windows search bar to access the windows command line Change to your mplayer directory (using Change directory recurse up CD.. and Change Directory CD) Assuming your movie and .edl file are in the mplayer directory, type: mplayer -edl <moviename>.edl <moviename>.mp4
