For me the [off-screen sound] portions are more annoying and seem to be included in most subtitles (I am aware of "normal" subtitles vs. SDH, but often the former also include extra information). To fix that I usually preprocess them with subclean[1], i.e. extract the subtitles with `ffmpeg -i IN out.srt` in clean and use that srt file. There are some players with cleanup options, but I never found them comprehensive enough. Also, separate subtitle tracks would be awesome, or a slider for "how much information" you want displayed. 1: https://github.com/disrupted/subclean#example= https://github.com/disrupted/subclean#example=
